Two Star letters

Last Friday I hinted at the limited intellect of the readers of the Star newspaper. Perhaps I need to reconsider..........

With regard to the first letter:

Check this out

Not only is it just down the road from me, but I also know the shop-owners and workers. A more friendly lot you couldn't find...

England has always bailed out the Scots, that's why so many of them have been PM and Chancellors of the UK. It's what brought them into the Union in the first place - they went bust. They nearly managed to bankrupt the UK as well with RBS and HBOS plus Gordon Brown in charge of the Treasury! Let Salmond have his referendum, he thinks Scotland owns the North Sea oil and gas fields and fails to recognise that 4 in every 5 pounds of tax money going to Scotland comes out of English pockets...

Just for the record, there is huge anger here in Germany at the amounts of money the German Taxpayers are having to stump up to bail out the Greeks, the Portugese and the Irish. Almost twice the UK share of the bailout...

Two excellent letters in the Star still does not make reading that "newspaper" excusable.

At least it doesn't pretend to be a serious paper like the Grauniad...

It is nice to see a simple post generate such comments!

K: I note the shop assistant stated that no complaints had been received, other than that from the prat! In any event, I would have thought it showed a little ingenuity with a view to increasing sales with a topically window display.

r: Fair question that many of us are asking.

TGM: Agree with first paragraph and your second very interesting......

k & m: question answered, methinks.

A: Agreed.

m & JH: No is the answer!
