I read with interest the subtitle AD Reiterates Stand Against Cruelty To Parliamentary Secretary (July 19). I sympathise.

Why stop there?

Shouldn’t all politicians be protected, rather than just the parliamentary secretary?

It is distressing to see them being shot at, trapped and stuffed for exhibiting to the public.

Then there is the vexed question of the open season: for how many months per year should it be legal to hunt politicians?

I think we need a EU directive on this. As youth unemployment throughout the continent soars, the problem can only get worse.
