Letter to the Editor: Ministers fail to prevent closure of mail centre

There does not seem to be any advantage in having local politicians sitting at top-tables of governance — going by some recent events.

For instance, two Cork politicians who hold important ministeries were unable to prevent the closure of the Cork Mails Centre at Little Island (while two mail centres in the Midlands and one in Dublin were the preferred choice to remain open). Those politicians are Simon Coveney TD and Michael Creed TD.
