Swindon is moving forward and looking at where and what it wants to be.

It seems to me that the new look Advertiser needs to move on from some old ways.

I would suggest that a) the anti-European rants you freely publish and b) the disgusting and constant assertion that all asylum seekers/foreigners are criminals is neither positive nor helpful (Letters Page October 15 Ditch Europe and get extra cash, and Keep out!).

Maybe we don't all agree on the solutions to our problems, but giving in to extremes has devastating consequences.

My grandfather's generation paid dearly to teach that lesson.

It isn't just buildings, that need to change.
