SIR - I'm as pleased as anyone to see the Government beaten three times in the Brexit debate in Parliament. There is a crisis at the heart of Government but what's seriously missing in these debates is the interests of ordinary people outside Parliament.
While ever the debate is about Parliamentary manoeuvres, austerity, racism, the scrapping of universal credit, funding of the NHS, raising wages and benefits, housing and the funding of education is all being overlooked.
We really do need to get back to the domestic agenda.
