WPDF To Stage Protest Outside Dail To Highlight Issue of Pay
The issue of pay for Defence Force Members is to be highlighted once again in a protest march outside the Dail.
The Wives and Partners of the Defence Forces are to mount a 24 hour protest on November 30th in opposition to the recent budget.
WPDF members say the budget offered no allowances for Defence Force Members and the Governement are in denial.
Speaking to RedFM News, Shelley Cotter of the WPDF is urging former members of the Defence Forces, and their families, to take part in the protest:
