SIR – Oh dear! It really has been hard to stop the sniggering over the last day or two while reading the mutterings of your left-wing correspondents Messrs Hornsby, Durkin et al, about the recent General Election.
They are all obviously distraught that the electorate has decided that the Conservatives should control the new government instead of the inept Ed Miliband and his crew.
Would they have been bleating in the same way if Miliband had, as the opinion polls suggested, found his way to Number 10? Of course not.
Many of us had hoped that the red-flag followers would have quietened down for a while after their election defeat, but obviously we must continue to listen to their dire warnings.
