SIR – I was most disgusted at the remarks made by George Galloway about “window lickers” (T&A, August 30).
My son and many of his friends go around in minibuses to their various activities and in the Seventies and Eighties those narrow-minded in the community referred to the people with disabilities as ‘window lickers’. One of the reasons that disabled minibuses are less prominent now is to deter these sorts of people from identifying disabled people.
