Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

Ireland's Role in the Future of the European Union: Discussion

2:30 pm

Mr. Paul Murphy MEP:

The picture on the slide is of a protest in Spain on 14 November last, when there was a general strike in Spain, Italy, Greece, Portugal, Malta and Cyprus. We need a Europe-wide struggle by working people against austerity and against this undemocratic process of authoritarian neo-liberalism.
