Nurses’ strike

Sir, – When the nurses on the southern side of the Border went on strike, the leader of Sinn Féin, accompanied by a Sinn Féin TD visited the picket line to cheer them on.

I wonder if Sinn Féin, north of the Border, have offered such solidarity to the nurses striking in Northern Ireland? – Yours, etc,
