Voice of the people

SIR, Politicians are elected by the people and then forget them! They should listen to what is being said and again this week we see loud voices being ignored.

In America there were over 600 marches, not individual people, demonstrating against the Trump immigration policy – sorry, that should be the US immigration policy developed by the politicians and supported by the people but it isn’t.

Several hundred thousand people isn’t even one per cent of the population but with the majority silent or unwilling to speak publicly, this is a loud enough set of voices that should be listened to.

The land of the free now seems to be free from a humane approach and so, the people must speak up.

Sincerely, Dennis Fitzgerald Melbourne, Australia.
