LETTERS EXTRA

leave behind. Kath Watson via email or debates, like she did not abide by their views on Syria.

Ms Hodgson, Ms Phillipson and Ms Elliot will never abide by the will of the public who voted Labour and who believed they were old type Labour MPs like Shinwell.

They are not and never will be.

In any other walk of life they would have been sacked if they did not have the courage to resign from the party and Westminster.

I am one voter who was brought up believing in the Labour Party, who will never vote for the likes of these people.

Just turned off my TV where the debate on Brexit rumbles on in Westminster and the remain MPs still want to go against the democratic vote given on June 23.

Has this country sunk so low that democracy only counts if the public aren’t allowed a say in their future?

How dare these so-called MPs say they are in Westminster to serve their constituents – lies, lies and more lies. Remember this at the next election,they are not like Manny Shinwell. Richy Mackem via email

One of my friends ended up back at Bede College teaching my son economics and the story goes on.

My next door pal, Barry, passed his 11 plus and became a marine draughtsman.

There are many more stories of young people from poor, in financial terms only, who had great parents who knew that the grammar school was a way out of the working class background that MPs, especially these days, want to close that door in their faces.

So, please, Miss Hodgson don’t berate the one person who is trying her hardest to bring this great teaching facility back for all those children who would absolutely fly with a grammar school education.

Give the PM a chance, that’s all I am asking. John Carden
