SIR - Card-carrying Tory Eddie Ward's recent opinion of John Cole's recent opinion of Shipley MP Philip Davies is (a) biased, and (b) just as wrong as the MP's support for potentially disastrous Brexit.

Why risk the return of the troubles in N Ireland and a "yes" vote for Scottish independence as well as another crashed economy just to return "sovereignty" to minority-supported (mainly) Tory Governments - governments that will realise just how little influence they have in the modern world, especially with their reduced economies?
