PAUL FLYNN has written a letter to Panasonic expressing his disappointment that they are pulling out of Newport.

I understand the reason why he did that, but what good is a letter? We need to have something to attract businesses such as Panasonic to stay and obviously a good enough attraction is not evident in Newport. Come on, our council and Newport Unlimited, justify your salaries paid for at the residents’ expense.
