SIR – Jason Smith, UKIP Bradford chairman, sings the praises of Shipley Conservative MP Philip Davies for his stance of withdrawal from the EU, only because it falls in line with his party’s main policy.

Elaine Neale claims that all Europe buys almost all its goods from China seemingly unaware that they import more than 40 per cent of goods produced in the UK, and Brian Bell is apparently oblivious to the fact that David Cameron announced months ago that all aid to India from the UK will stop after March 2015, as he too feels they no longer need it. Three letters worthy of note (T&A, May 18).
