| Message | ALF why? Are you not slightly shocked when medical staff go and strike and people die because of it? |

| Message | It denies those people who choose to work as medical staff what i consider a basic human right. All citizens should have the right to strike, even if it gives some particular occupations greater power in dispute resolution, then that represents the value of their contribution to society. |
