Time to get back on our feet

Sir, – Day by day, the United Kingdom is progressively deteriorating. We are now a divided nation with so many of our hopes and aspirations at stake, and all the time an alarming state of unrest and anarchy is steadily approaching.

We are not alone in this respect – the same thing is happening around the world.

Our Brexit problems are exacerbating the situation and right now we must do something, and fast, to prevent further disaster. Compromises will have to be made, of course, as we do not all think as one.

For all too long we have been involved with a multitude of Brexit negotiations, most of which have come to nothing – but at last we have reached an acceptable compromise.

Of course, it won’t please everybody, but at least it will allow us to get back to a stable basis again and back to some sort of normality in our lives. To further prolong negotiations concerning Brexit is unthinkable. Enough has been done already.

Finally I would suggest we give the Prime Minister all the support we can in getting the whole issue through Parliament.

Forget about party politics and look on this as our attempt to get our country back on its feet again.
