To be honest, after I declared my colours to the mast regarding UKIP, I was prepared for the vitriolic attacks that would appear on the letter pages regarding my political opinions.

However, unfounded attacks regarding my sincere belief in women’s rights, as well as my hopes for the future of our nation resting on our children, have quite frankly shocked me.

No matter where these personal insults are coming from, be it mature brothers or teenagers, they are out of order.

Someone very dear to my heart needs 24/7 care. Respect that and stick to the political issues we beg to differ upon.

That is why my family were upset regarding the Webb brothers and the comments from Ms March on my disregard for the opposite sex.

Get your facts right before you write your assumed opinions of my thoughts.
