Female views on Tory mixed
I AN writing to take issue with the point that Anne McIntosh MP, to remain as a Conservative candidate in Thirsk and Malton, would win a ballot because she has the support of women and farmers.
There are many women I know, who are strong supporters of the Conservative Party and the fundraising events held in this area who do not support our MP.
I cannot answer for the farming community.

Hide AdI APPRECIATE that at this time of year our agricultural friends are busy and have to bring in their crops and move machinery on our already overcrowded roads, but I would ask that they show a little consideration to the rest of we poor souls who have to use the same roads.
The other day, I counted no less than 43 cars following a tractor with a hedge cutter attachment, just south of Bridlington.
Surprise, surprise not more than four miles further on, yet another tractor towing a machine of some sorts, with 38 cars behind.
Golf fan’s cup of woe
From: Jenny Onions, The Pastures, Carlton, Goole.
HAVING failed to obtain a ticket in the ballot for next year’s Ryder Cup, I would be interested to know how many tickets are available for the three days, and how many of those are actually sold to the public.
Can anyone give me a straight answer to this question?
