JAMES Sandy (All change Evening Advertiser letters) tells us that his grandfather's generation fought in, presumably World War Two.
This implies that Mr Sandy is young and I would suggest that when he, like me, is in his 50s and sees the value of his pension slipping down the drain, while some £30 billion each year is wasted on EU membership, he might feel differently.
Two other things that war was fought for were freedom of speech and freedom from European control.
Mr Sandy seems to want to prevent one, while the EU wants to prevent the other. And, before anyone tells me that we had a referendum over joining the answer is no, we did not.
We had already been in two years before the referendum was held.
In any case, the subject was entering a free trade area, not a European Union, a different thing entirely.
