Surely Mrs May has nothing to hide

-

WHY has Mrs May postponed revelation of the figures about the NHS until the day after the election?

Is it a sign of strength that she can do this or does she fear what they will reveal?

Also, why are the files of the striking miners at Orgreave locked away until 2066? What is there to hide about a miners’ strike?

Is it that they will show some of the faults and aggression towards working men by Margaret Thatcher and thereby discredit today’s Tories?

They have done the same to the Hutton enquiry, which was a doctor who allegedly committed suicide. What is the big secret about suicide that has to be locked away for 70 years?

I am referring to the weapons inspector Dr David Kelly, who before the decision to go to war said Saddam had no weapons of mass destructio­n which later was verified as true.

Despite this revelation, Bush and Blair ignored it, to commit an illegal war which caused the deaths of thousands of innocent people including 450 British soldiers and the subsequent rise of ISIS.

It is little wonder people in the Middle East hate us and continuall­y try to get revenge by such things as suicide bombers which until that war, had never before occurred in Iraq.

Another postponeme­nt until after the election is the decision to award the remaining 60% of Sky ownership to Murdoch and thereby create a media monopoly.

Knowledge of this decision I AM trying to trace the family of Florence Messer and Andrew (my grandparen­ts). I have seen my cousin Tom, but didn’t know the rest of my father - George’s - brother’s family.

I know his brother Andy changed his surname to Mercer, also my nana was Bryden before marriage.

All my father’s family had middle name of Talbot as my nana kept her mother’s name earlier would lose May votes, despite that she would have virtually all the media behind her.

Mrs May is right, she is strong i.e.strong about being silent and covering things up until it does not lose her or her party votes. WJC, North Shields
