Well done that man Chris Humphreys, whose letter on February 21 was about what the Prime Minister of France had to say about radical Islamists.

The fact is that our politicians and COE Lords cannot bring themselves to agree with the French is simply because of the fear of strong liberal mindedness of the press, who refuse to call a spade a spade!

Apologies all around for our “horrible” colonial past, bombing Dresden, together with our many other ancient sins. On top of, we now think our hard pressed taxpayers must pay the world’s so called poor nations £0.7 per cent of their money as a token of our repentance! We must be mad.
