I’ve been watching Mick Lynch from Ireland for a number of years.He is a tremendous advocate for truth and fairness.Politicians in England both Conservative and Labour need to listen and represent people with honesty and integrity.

[kevarsa]

Absolute hero of a man...go on Mick!! From one lynch to another 💪 big love here in Ireland 🙏

[nickroach]

Absolutely legend of a man- so much common sense

[pippoplfc]

Great speech, bringing hope to the country for the first time in years. Mick Lynch and people of his ilk should always be backed by the working classes.

Im a 30 year RMT man Mick is a real leader he like me comes from nothing.
The establishment are terrified of him Lab, Con, LD and Green
We need new politicians, real people who care

When medical consultants cheer to the rafters an ardent trade unionist passionately urging them to fight to defend their industry (the NHS) it is a sign of true change in Britain! So let's support all workers in their struggles against exploitation and defend all vital services against profiteering. If a service is important enough to be depended upon then it's important enough to be in public ownership and run on a not-for-profit basis.

Mick is a brilliant speaker and trade union leader. Solidarity to all workers who continually have to fight for justice! ✊

[andrewmaccallum]

Go on yerself Mick, excellent as always 👏 👏👏
Solidarity with all workers, and f**k the tories! ✊️

Governments hate people like Mick because he talks the truth...Our society is screaming out for change...

[RoyceMunday]

It's always a joy to listen to Mick's clarity and wisdom when he speaks passionately about the rights of working people.

Well done Mick, and well done BMA

[robertstraw]

The best public speaker in the country right now.

[hilarybarker]

Brilliant speech! Telling it like it is and no prompt sheets needed! Thank you for giving us some hope in this corruptly governed country. ✊

[Draminos]

Outstanding speech by someone standing up for us all. A real working-class hero.

[sphughes]

This man is a legend. He has brilliant communication skills that are not taught by an expensive PR firm charging the earth. He is not like those rubbish MP's and the PM who stage manage every interview and photo opportunity. Rishi Sunak could never stand in front of a group of people and speak from the heart unless someone wrote him a speech. This guy can and why? because he is intelligent, honest and what he says makes perfect sense.

[alansdorsetfossils]

What an impressive speech. Why only 30 comments??? Mick Lynch is so right about all of this. Who would have thought he'd be invited to stand up in front of the BMA.

[revpadma]

Brought tears to my eyes ... tears of sadness for what has already been lost, for all the millions of people who are suffering poverty while a few grow obscenely rich, sadness for all our forebears who fought for democracy and peace ... and tears of hope that the change Mick speaks about can really happen because we need it NOW. God bless Mick Lynch and everyone who is standing up to these disgraceful thieving bullies.

[r__b]

I fucking love Mick and it's great to see him joining with the doctors

[mikeenright]

Brilliant!!!! What a brilliant speech thank you Mick.

[russellcoppack]

Regardless of whether you agree with his campaign and approach to negotiation, you cannot help to be blown away by Mick’s authentic, grounded intelligence and inspirational oratory. I’d love to go for a pint with him. A modern day Jimmy Reid. Oh to have a single MP who could generate this degree of passion and inspiration.
