In response to the letter by Ann West and Tony Barnsley regarding the BNP, I found it highly amusing and in common with the remarks of a party in tatters.

Labour's open door policies have forced thousands of people to change allegiance; I've voted Labour for nearly 40 years but no more.

The comments on the elderly being insulted after fighting for freedom from fascism is a joke.

My father served in the war from start to finish and he would turn in his grave if he knew what Labour had done to his beloved country, he and his mates fought for freedom, we have given our country away.

How many pensioners reading this have got to sell up to keep them in care, not if you live in Scotland, what about free medicine in Wales?

What does England get? Nothing, only mass eastern European cheap labour keeping our scroungers well and truly on the dole.

Why do people jump on the racist theme even when the BNP is mentioned?

That old chestnut is well and truly used up, because if anyone is feeling the victims of racism, it is the English, in England - now that is an insult to our ancestors.
