* DON’T be too embarrassed about financial problems - get some help.

YOU published a letter from me in which I referred to the Government 'U turn' on Identity Cards. It seems that my delight at the announcement was somewhat premature. It appears that the Government will still continue to develop the information data bases which underpin the basis for identity cards, which I believe is a sure sign that the 'promise' made by the Home Secretary that ID cards will 'never' be compulsory for UK citizens will have as much value as any 'promise' made by Tony Blair or Gordon Brown. It is in fact quite worthless.

BEING hard of hearing, but with deaf aids, I started to watch television, but because of the background music I couldn’t follow the dialogue, not able to lip read, I switched the set off, so I went down to the local for a pint and a chat, laugh with the lads. Then someone put the music (noise) on, so that stopped the conversation for me, though I’d go out and do a Harvey Wallbanger, or drink up and go home, chose the latter it being less painful.

I would like to ask the people of Swindon who they would prefer to have onside during a crisis, the EU or the US. The reason I ask this is that the EU seems hell bent on destroying Europe’s strong relationship with the US.

GIVEN that we now have 52 pillars and a memorial plaque naming each of the victims of the 7/7 terrorist attack on London’s transport system, doesn’t this spell time for a national memorial for all the victims who are killed on our roads?

THE police spend almost half of their time completing paperwork, such as the stop and search form.
