SIR - It seems as if goodwill to all men' hasn't lasted too far into the new year if the furore over BNP Councillor Cromie's £5 gifts to Queensbury's pensioners is anything to go by (T&A, January 2).
The cynical among us may suggest a councillor who donates a percentage of his allowance back to the community is, in effect, trying to buy' votes.
On the other hand it may be the case that Councillors Walls and Hanson (both Conservative) are a bit ruffled because Coun Cromie has gate-crashed the party in Queensbury and is actually providing a positive image both of himself and his political party.
