I thank the representatives from Fórsa for coming and I wish them all the best with the campaign. They might consider a leaflet for the picket line that explains the issue to parents. I am sure that Fórsa has already thought of this, but I am mentioning it just in case it has not. Parents could then put pressure on their TDs and it could broaden the issue out. Fórsa might also consider a policy of no representatives from Government parties taking selfies on the picket line, which is another thing I see happening. I wish them the best of luck with the campaign.
