We’re not all on our mobiles and iPads

-

MARGARET Tucker (August 18) identifies a genuine problem amongst many of the population. They are either not computer literate or do not own a computer anyway!

There is a current trend for “everyone” to have the latest app on their mobile phone (which they may not own anyway!) or be fully aware of “internet banking” as opposed to a bit of cash in their purse/wallet. The Government (in support of its Net Zero policies) seems hellbent on totally electric vehicles; the establishm­ent of solar farms to cover the countrysid­e, ignoring any considerat­ion of quality of the area and in direct contravent­ion of the needs of the nation to provide more of its own food. Are our current politician­s so ignorant as to not realise that the obvious place for solar panels is on roofs, not covering fields?

I have real sympathy with that generation who are not the fiveyear-old child with fluid fingers and thumbs on their phone, keypad or whatever.
