SIR - The radical plans to deal with the endless traffic problems at Saltaire roundabout have been refused at stage one by the Regional Transport Board (T&A, April 2).
This august body is made up of non-elected people who do not live in the Bradford Metro area, in short yet another "quango" staffed by appointed members chosen by the present New Labour Government.
This unelected group has made the decision to refuse, not Bradford Council currently run by the Conservatives, supported by Lib/Dems.
Suddenly we are blessed by separate statements from local Labour Party spoke persons, who blame it all on the local Tories.
This is blatant hypocrisy! They attempt to deflect the responsibility from the socialist supporter appointees at the RTB who are to blame for the refusal.
