MPs out of touch with reality

FROM: Barry Foster, Manor Cottages, High Stakesby, Whitby.HERE we go again – a totally incompetent group of Labour MPs having a go at David Cameron for referring to a female MP as “dear” (Yorkshire Post, April 28). Heavens above, haven’t this lot anything better to do than waste their time and money on such trivia?

It really is time this country of ours grew up and started by getting rid of the Left wing, politically correct brigade before we all drown in their apathy and interference in the lives of everyday decent people.

They should spend some time looking around to see just what is going on in the outside world and give us all a break.

Head count

From: Jill Picken, Wellesley Avenue, Leeds.

JAYNE Dowle is right (Yorkshire Post, April 28). The pay of headteachers should be public knowledge. Such transparency will help parents determine whether they offer value for money – and are doing sufficient to educate our children.

This culture of secrecy is one reason why there is so much mistrust of the public sector and so forth.

Not so great

From: David Quarrie, Lynden Way, Holgate, York.

THE column by Bernard Ingham (Yorkshire Post, April 27) summed up today’s Britain perfectly.

Sadly the word “Great” cannot appear anywhere!

Off track

From: Andrew Mercer, Guiseley.

THE letter by C Lawson (Yorkshire Post, April 27) summed up everything that is wrong with Northern’s rail services in Leeds – and the firm’s cavalier disregard for paying passengers.

Guest list

From: Mrs C Smith, Stradbroke Road, Sheffield.

HOW petulant of the Royal family not to invite Tony Blair and Gordon Brown to the Royal wedding, especially given how the former bailed out the House of Windsor over the death of Diana, Princess of Wales.
