IN the edition of June 29 an article was printed "Being South Ribble MP" which was David Borrow's criticism of the Tory "Save the Pound" campaign, stating how the Tories had signed the "Massacre Treaty" -- Massa means the Master.

Failures of previous Governments should be no excuse or reason for present or future Governments to continue to abide by such.

I do not be so bold as to state treaties are to be upheld not broken; Neville Chamberlain had a treaty with Hitler, so too had Stalin.

In those days I was a peaceful resident of the UK like the rest of the population, but not so in Germany.

They had their Hitler youth, who are now the adult people of that country, and leaders.

But I digress, it was about the slogan "Save the Pound" which the Tory Hague adopted.

I have seen what an excellent response it got when it was introduced by the only sincere party which means what it says -- the United Kingdom Independence Party.

The pound sterling is an International currency and has been for many years.

It was the socialist Clement Attlee who agreed to its demotion and promoting the US dollar along with other socialists -- National Socialists.

Would Mr. Borrow kindly explain why cannot these Europeans adopt Sterling?

Sterling is an international currency instead of this make believe Euro.

Labour is undercutting this country, but then no matter what they have always been against us.
