POINT Straight to the
÷ IF MISOGYNY is to become a ‘hate crime’ (Mail) then for the sake of equality the female equivalent — misandry — should be acknowledged.
ANTHONY BARNETT, King’s Lynn, Norfolk. ÷ BEFORE he criticises the business community for sloping off to play golf on Friday afternoons (Mail), I suggest Liam Fox takes a look at the Commons on a Friday afternoon.
DAVID SKELTON, Goole, Yorks. ÷ NIKE might blame England’s poor Euro 2016 performance for disappointing sales, but the truth is the new England kit is terrible and fans don’t like it.
PATRICK GRADY, Northampton. ÷ THERESA MAY says she wants every child to have the opportunities she enjoyed at a grammar school (Mail). Doesn’t she mean she wants 20 per cent of children to have them, while 80 per cent fail the exam?
CHRISTOPHER CLAYTON, Waverton, Cheshire. ÷ THE Prime Minister’s plan for school reform will have NUT officials rubbing their hands with glee: another excuse to call a strike.
BRIAN HARDING, Northallerton, North Yorks. ÷ DRIVERS aren’t as concerned that cyclists don’t pay road tax (Letters) as that they can’t be identified. A cyclist who causes an accident can ride away.
ROBIN BETTELLEY, New Milton, Hants. ÷ SEEING Sir Philip Green in his ‘hide and seek’ pose (Mail), I thought I could hear him saying: ‘Tonight, Matthew, I’m going to be Harry Worth.’
CHRIS HYLAND, Northampton. ÷ WAS it ‘sexist’ (Mail) when President Bush was embarrassed because he couldn’t recall who the President of Pakistan was?
MURRAY DAY, Hucknall, Notts. ÷ TATTOOS? Call it ‘body art’ or ‘self-mutilation’, sadly after a few years all it resembles is a nasty bruise.
