LABOUR STORY NEEDS A REWRITE

-

As a study shows our fears of crime are shaped in our formative years, we ask: what keeps you awake at night?

The prospect of a war waged via cyber attacks and nerve agents is extremely worrying. In this country, the ongoing Brexit shambles is also very concerning. Liz Kelly, Glasgow

My worry is that too many criminals are not punished enough and come out of prison and repeat their crimes. They are laughing at the justice system. Margaret Brown, Rutherglen

Churchill was PM when I was young. A murder was headline news because they were rare. The Acid Bath Murderer was around and my mother was scared I would get abducted! Elizabeth O’Regan, Lincoln

The increasing shortage of police officers is a major concern. There have been so many documented cases of police taking an unacceptab­le length of time to attend incidents. It’s worrying. Judi Martin, Aberdeensh­ire

When I was young the worry was that we would be going to war with Russia, or about having enough money for food. Now our biggest enemy is our government­s and greed of the few. Andrew Clubb, Ellon

My early years in the ’30s, to the best of my recollecti­on, were completely carefree. For the next six years I lived through the Second World War. Compared to that, today’s problems are insignific­ant. David Cross, Cumbria

I’m concerned about other people, mainly family. Having been a victim of an attempted mugging I know there are dangers, but I will not be made to feel insecure. Cheryl Payne, Hull

It seems a little pointless to worry about things that might or might not happen. Lorna Smith, North Yorkshire
