Where’s the proof of public servants in Newry?

I TAKE great exception to your editorial headlined ‘Day of action becomes day of cheap beer’, November 25).

Along with my colleagues, I was on picket duty last Tuesday, and not in Newry as claimed by you.

What proof do you have of this? Did you have a reporter standing at the border asking people where they worked? I think you would have been better served if your reporter had gone to Government Buildings and talked to workers who felt they had been left with no choice but to go out on strike.
