Dear Sir,

During the General Election I referred to the local Labour Party as being Momentum/ Labour. Subsequently, I have spoken to ‘moderate’ Labour Party members who say the local party has not been ‘infiltrated’ by Momentum, however, none can tell me how many Labour Party members are also Momentum members. Nationally, this is a large majority.

I do not profess to be an essayist. Addison and Lamb sugar-coated the didactic pill; I am less subtle and tend to indulge in plain speaking, I respond, under my own name, to political statements which I disagree with. This is especially the case, when a democratically elected foreign Head of State is being personally abused by extreme, left-wing, hate filled, apologists for Corbyn. [In a free delivered, Local Newspaper!] That correspondence ended with a Labour Councillor trying to have me gagged! Subsequently, she wrote under an alias (as a dog).

So to, “Name and address supplied” (I would do you the curtesy of trying to spell your name correctly, if I knew it) and “Tired of it all”, all I can say is come out from under your stone and have the courage of your convictions, otherwise, we must assume that you are none other than Cllr. Beetham writing under yet another alias!

The contention that my letters are an attempt to indoctrinate, is an insult to readers, by someone who has clearly been indoctrinated in the standard left–wing opening gambit of silencing all opposition. [It is called de-platforming when practiced in our left-wing Universities, where it is prevalent].

Readers will note that the butt of left-wing ire in last week’s Newton News were the Independents and your newly elected Conservative MP. Our ousted Labour MP ran up almost record expenses. I doubt if our current MP could possibly cost us more than Phil, even if he tried. However, thanks to our Editor, MP Paul Howell tells us what he is doing every week in ‘Parliament Talk’. Phil Wilson got elected and then went to ground! We only saw him at ‘photo shoots’ immediately prior to the General Election.

Yours Sincerely

Alastair P.G. Welsh
