I see Ralph Leavis thinks I am suffering from amnesia (Oxford Mail, June 21).

He must have a short memory. Margaret Thatcher ruined this country.

Labour has done well, getting this country back on its feet. I am a pensioner and I feel safe with what Labour has done for us pensioners.

I hope in the future that the things Labour does will be for the good of the country.

I've great faith in them and so should all pensioners. Just think back. I know I am better off since Labour came to power.

There are things that happen all over the world. Prices are going up - you cannot blame the Government for that.

Just trust in Labour. They will get it right, but please, no more Thatcher years or anything like them. Vote Labour - you know it makes sense.
