Value our free Press

THE Speaker of the House of Commons thinks he can summon whoever he thinks fit if he doesn’t approve of what they say. This is Britain, not China or Russia.

We can still have opinions and voice them, though this is being eroded by woke brainwashing.

I’m sure angela Rayner is perfectly capable of speaking up for herself or she wouldn’t be an MP. The Speaker should refrain from trying to control what the Press print.

WHIlE disagreeing with angela Rayner’s politics, I admire how she has succeeded in her professional life. Sexist comments by idiots have ensured women in all political parties, and hopefully many men, are united in their support for her.

It is shocking that MPs have to deal with the sort of behaviour that women like me had to endure in the 1960s and 1970s.

I had hoped this attitude had been consigned to history. Sadly, it is still prevalent despite women’s efforts to gain equality and respect.
