SIR So once again the wishes of Bradfordians are to be ignored in favour of an outsider's ideas.

The Odeon building is Bradford's one remaining stanchion of the Art Deco period. Art Deco is an extremely passionate medium and future citizens will not be able to find a single example of this glamorous period of history within our city boundaries.

It is said we live in a democracy. What nonsense! Having succumbed to this dictatorial blackmail I suppose the Casa Mela', a good old Bradford name, is the best of the bunch at least we get to keep Bradford's Twin Towers.

Is this perhaps because they look Eastern in their appearance?

For years Bradford has been called Wardley's Folly', is it now to be Ziff-field Follies?
