SIR – David Cameron (pictured) doesn’t practise what he preaches. If he believes in integration, why is he encouraging religious groups to set up ‘free’ schools in the Academy programme?

The experience of Catholic and Protestant schools in Northern Ireland shows this to be dangerously divisive. If he wants national unity, why is he imposing cuts that are increasing unemployment and poverty while allowing the bankers and the rich to take ever more? I too believe in integration.

That will only come when we take religion out of education and end the gross injustice of economic inequality.
