Dear Sir/Madam,
 
MOUTHING OFF
 
I was surprised by Tory MP David Davies's sudden interest in the dental care of the few young refugees who are at last being allowed to enter the UK from the Calais "Jungle".
 
Whilst I'm sure that many of these youngsters would not be averse to a free dental checkup, he should be careful not to be seen to be promoting compulsory dentistry since Human Rights legislation could well class this as cruel and unusual punishment.

Dear Sir/Madam,
 
BREXIT REVISITED
 
Now that everyone has experienced the minor economic and political upheaval caused by Brexit, perhaps it is time for a second referendum.

Remainers could win my vote this time were they only prepared to offer minor concessions like blue passports, the right to sell petrol by the gallon and a return to weather forecasts in comprehensible units.
 
As far as immigration is concerned, I doubt many Brexiteers would object to daily plane loads of cheap foreign labour as long as they could be paid in £SD!
