SIR - It used to be said that the Church of England was the Conservative Party on its knees. The link may be less strong nowadays but it can still provide inspiration for the likes of Philip Bird (T&A, September 30), who sees nothing wrong in demanding the return of a tax concession on private pensions which benefits the rich and exploits the poor.
If he turns to Matthew 25, verse 29, he will read: "For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath."
Hardly a Christian sentiment I would have thought, but it explains why the less well-off should fear the election of a government led by David Cameron, pictured left.
