SIR – The Windsor-Middleton wedding, and all its media hype, could yet provide a platform for those who believe in fairness and equality.

Two millionaires will be kept safe by security paid for by the taxpayers, while the rest of us struggle as cuts bite.

Bradfordians who oppose the monarchy can unite together and lead the way for the republican cause.

As the cuts bite and we crumble deeper into poverty, are we really going to just smile sweetly, wave a Union Jack, and accept that Elizabeth Windsor and her offspring have superior DNA to the rest of us?

Those who oppose the monarchy, don’t be afraid to speak out. Let’s work towards a sensible debate on whether passing on public office on a hereditary basis is a fair system. But if we’re honest, everyone already knows the answer to that.
