IT is very clear to me that Prince Harry and Boris Johnson are in the same boat. Both are under the very strong influence of their respective partners.

Prince Harry makes foolish statements and does and says whatever Meghan dictates while Boris does and says whatever Carrie tells him without thought for the consequences.

THE whole nation has complained about the blatant lies and subterfuge emanating from the Government and from Downing Street in particular (Tom Richmond, The Yorkshire Post, December 11).

AS much as I enjoy reading Christa Ackroyd, I feel her article (The Yorkshire Post, December 11) raises the question as to how long will it be before those deemed to be selfish and thoughtless through freedom of choice be required to identify themselves by the wearing of a symbol.
