Bridget McCole, Vicky Phelan and Susie Long were exceptional people who turned their private suffering into a crusade for trans- parency to ensure others were spared their brutal ordeal. Carol and James Johnston, the parents of 16-year-old Aoife Johnston, who died in a chaotic A&E department in the grip of meningitis after being left without antibiotics, did similar. Nine-year-old Harvey is the youngest face on this wall of shame. He's a symbol of the scandal-hit CHI (Children’s Health ), which runs our children's hospitals #JusticeforHarvey #ResignHarris #March4Harvey #Aug23 Garden of Remembrance at 2pm.

Actual waiting lists over 8 years to be seen in some CDNT. These numbers are not accurate in my opinion. They cannot be the same numbers every year and have children waiting that long. Basic maths.#JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil

Never forget, it is not just the children left waiting for scoliosis surgery that have been mistreated by CHI. Unnecessary surgeries were performed on children for profit. Industrial springs were implanted into children. #ResignHarris #JusticeForHarvey irishtimes.com/health/2025/0…

RTE coverage on this is disgraceful Mick Clifford saying Harris will NOT be resigning,Guests agreeing that GOVT did their best in providing more Funding for operations and things are improving Worst of all Brenda Power suggesting the campaign online Harris is of a retaliatory One

Stating that we would have timely access to healthcare was not the mistake. Refusal to provide timely access was the mistake. #InvestInChildren #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil #StructuralViolenceKills #UNCRPD #AuditNOW @UN
The provision of timely access to proper healthcare is not a "foolhardy promise". It is a basic human right. We have a serious problem in this rich nation of ours, where Government conflate rights with aspirations, "notions" and charity.

#JusticeForHarvey ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ #ResignHarris What sickening irony. Incredulously, Tánaiste Simon Harris talks about “health comes first” as his party scrambles to find another Presidential candidate. Now we know the priorities of ⁦@FineGael

Mick, the true spinal surgery waiting list is 242 children – not 131 as CHI would have us believe. •231 are waiting in CHI. •11 are waiting in Cappagh. CHI’s narrative only counts 131, but this is misleading. For example: •15 children are “pre-admit” – they have been given a date, but until surgery actually happens, they are still waiting. •31 children are listed for “planned procedures” such as rod lengthenings. These are surgeries too, and they are still waiting. •11 children are in Cappagh – yet they never are overlooked the whole time. •24 children are “suspended” for surgery abroad – but they too are still waiting etc The fact is every one of these children has been clinically assessed, booking forms filled, and placed on a waiting list for #Scoliosis surgery. @SimonHarrisTD @CHI_Ireland reporting only on one cohort makes zero sense. We must push back and acknowledge all children waiting – not just the ones CHI chooses to count. @SBH_PAG Why is this narrative accepted? We should not allow CHI to write the rules. These are our children who wait … 242 of them. @CarrollJennifer @BernardGloster #LucyNugent #ResignHarris #JusticeForHarvey @MaryLouMcDonald @RuthCoppingerSP @ivanabacik @PadraigRice @MichealMartinTD @TomClonan @HIQA @npsoIRL

Smacks of guilt. No doubt their solicitors are making bank right now. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil #StructuralViolenceKills #UNCRPD #AuditNOW @UN
How on earth could the leader of the country not comment on the death of Harvey. The whole nation is in mourning. Yet @MichealMartinTD @CarrollJennifer AND @rodericogorman have remained shamefully silent. Repulsive behaviour. #JusticeForHarvey

This was Harvey's first wheelchair. I put it together for him. He was less than two years old. Harvey should have had a bright future. That future was stolen from him. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #RecallTheDáil instagram.com/p/BVaP6G0FyJ7/…

Show them we are a united front and will not tolerate our children being sacrificed. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil #StructuralViolenceKills #UNCRPD #AuditNOW @UN
We are incredibly lucky to have the support of people across the political spectrum, none of us want to see children failed and that is the message we need to get across. We are stronger when we can all stand together ❤️ #JusticeForHarvey

Harvey Morrison's parents: More will die if children's care isn't fixed -John Mooney Gillian Sherratt and Stephen Morrison demand changes from Simon Harris over Children's Hospital Ireland waiting-list delays they believe killed their son Stephen said he had promised his son on his deathbed that he would never stop campaigning for change. “Watching doctors trying to revive him is something that will stay with me for ever,” he said. As of last month there were 177 children waiting for spinal surgery through the CHI, including 131 patients who are still awaiting a surgery date. A further 21 children have had their surgery suspended for clinical reasons and nine for personal reasons. #JusticeforHarvey #ResignHarris #CHI #Scoliosis #BackUs #March4Harvey #Aug23 thetimes.com/article/51adb6c…

This govt chose violence towards children and is now trying to gaslight us about it. Sadistic behaviour. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil #StructuralViolenceKills
In the context of Dire & Tragic situation endured by #Disabled Irish children #Carers & families -This is a tone deaf & offensive propaganda reel from an openly #Ableist Government @scolionetwork @orthokids_irl Infuriatingly offensive & wildly out of step with lived experience

The parents of nine-year-old Harvey Morrison have warned it is “only a matter of time” before another child dies because of issues at Children’s Health Ireland (CHI), the hospital network responsible for his care. “We haven’t slept since he died. We are very much on autopilot but we are still in advocacy mode. This is the aftermath of failures within CHI,” Gillian said. Stephen said he had promised his son on his deathbed that he would never stop campaigning for change. “Watching doctors trying to revive him is something that will stay with me for ever,” he said. “All we can do now in Harvey’s honour is fight to make sure other children get better treatment than he got. So they won’t face the struggles and hopefully reach their full potential. I think that’s quite a nice legacy that he might have,” she said. The Morrisons are calling for a commission of inquiry into CHI’s treatment of children with spina bifida and scoliosis Jennifer Carroll MacNeill, declined to say whether she supported the Morrisons’ call for an inquiry. In a private call to the bereaved couple, Harris admitted having “serious concerns” about what he had been told by CHI. He told them he would be “sorry forever” about failing to meet the family when they sought help, and the couple told him they found it difficult to accept his desire to meet now that Harvey had died. #ResignHarris #JusticeForHarvey #RecallTheDáil thetimes.com/world/ireland-w…

Silence is complicit when State failures kill children. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil #StructuralViolenceKills
Noticeable that the @SocDems haven’t even painted a fingernail for this campaign. @labour also very quiet. @fiannafailparty & @FineGael are out with gaslighting PR stunts about the amazing services they are providing for children with disabilities. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris

@fiannafailparty say every child should reach their potential - yet under FF/FG government, countless children have been denied timely healthcare, many will never get the chance to fulfil that potential, and some have tragically lost their lives. That’s not ok. @SimonHarrisTD @MichealMartinTD @FineGael #ResignHarris #justiceforharvey @SBH_PAG

Silence is complicit in the face of State violence. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #ElectionNeeded #RecallTheDáil #StructuralViolenceKills
Where are some of the opposition parties? Their silence, while the country demands action, makes them complicit in the government's failures. Do your job. Unite with the people who elected you. Children can't wait. #JusticeForHarvey #ResignHarris #RecallTheDáil
