Straight to the POINT

÷ NICE to see Vanessa Redgrave, Juliet Stevenson and Harriet Walter calling for child refugees to be allowed into Britain. To set a good example, wouldn’t it be a good idea for them to take some of these children into their own palatial homes?

ANDREW PETTIGREW, Thornton Cleveleys, Lancs. ÷ MY NAME’S Jim: I sell washing machines and spin tales to Labour voters.

JOHN EVANS, Wokingham, Berks. ÷ ENGLAND’S football team plays like a Subbuteo team: No movement when not on the ball and no real ideas.

JIM GOODHAND, Grimsby, Lincs. ÷ I AM thinking of leaving my golf club because of the expense. However, I’d like to carry on playing free. Could the Brexit trio Johnson, Davis and Fox give me some advice on my negotiating tactics.

DAVID POWELL, Ashford, Middlesex. ÷ LUCKILY we aren’t ruled by Kim Jong-un, or there wouldn’t be anyone left snoozing in the House of Lords.

CHARLOTTE JOSEPH, Lawford, Essex. ÷ WHAT possessed Baroness Wheatcroft to speak about ‘the perils of Brexit’ (Mail) on a cruise liner full of people who overwhelmingly voted in favour of leaving the EU? She was lucky she wasn’t fed to the sharks.

R. H. ASHTON, Blackwood. S.Wales. ÷ ACCORDING to experts, eating after 7pm is not good for your health. In my younger days, when I got home after a night out, I’d eat a bread pudding straight out of the tin — just the thing to wash down the pints. It didn’t do me any harm: I’m 92.

ALF BETTS, Bridgwater, Somerset. ÷ DRIVERLESS cars are nothing new, we’ve had them for years: idiots who’d rather text, play games or talk on their mobiles instead of controlling their vehicles.
