SEAN SAYS IT WITH FLOWERS AS NURSES GET HIS FULL SUPPORT

LOCAL man Sean Collins was one of those backing the nurses strike last week - even bringing a bunch of flowers to say a very special thanks.

He spent 12 weeks in hospital with a foot problem and knows all too well how hard the underpaid nurses work.

‘It was a token for the help they gave me in Drogheda and Beaumont. They deserve our full support,’ he added. He is pictured with Renua Europrean Election candidate, Michael O’Dowd.
