Dunnes Stores striker Mary Manning calls for boycott of Israeli goods

One of the Dunnes Stores workers who led the famous 1980s boycott of South African products says Israeli products should be boycotted because of what the Israel Defense Forces are doing in Gaza.

Mary Manning believes the boycott should apply to both imported goods into Ireland, and goods exported to Israel.
