SIR – Once again, Republican Max Hey launched into a diatribe against the monarchy (Letters, June 22).
May I point out that this country is not a slave to a personality cult, it’s just that the people therein know which side their bread is buttered, hence 10.5 million viewers watched the Diamond Jubilee Thames Pageant and nearly 17 million tuned in to the concert broadcast from outside Buckingham Palace.
However, to stop readers falling into a state of ennui, could we please have at least a temporary moratorium on your excoriation of the Royal Family, Mr Hey?
