Labour’s own border scandal

THE accusations being directed at the present government over the UK Border Agency are nothing short of scandalous.

Rather than having an inquiry into the recent behaviour of the Border Agency, the Government and police should be investigating the behaviour of New Labour and what must be the worst case of treason since the war.

Scrap plan to lift speed limit

From: Ruthven Urquhart, High Hunsley, East Yorkshire.

FOG, smog or smoke may have been the contributory cause of this dreadful M5 carnage, but surely the outstanding problems are excessive and irresponsible speed, together with a failure to keep a safe braking distance from other vehicles.
