All must join the fight

I was very saddened that the Peace Rally in Hyde Park clashed with the anti-knife and gun march that also took place on Saturday, September 20, in Brent.

We refer to the article “Poor emergency care service in Harrow” (www.harrowtimes.co.uk, September 26). We feel the picture is a very different one and would like to reassure readers.

No case to build on field

With reference to the article “Church appeals for plans” (Harrow Times, September 18) I write to agree with Harrow Council’s decisions to refuse outline planning permission.

Life not being enhanced

9:46am Thursday 2nd October 2008

I am of the view Tony McNulty, MP for Harrow East, should lose his job. He seems the most inefectual MP.

How things have improved

10:04am Thursday 25th September 2008

I see once again Gareth Thomas MP has decided to resort to cheap political point-scoring and negative attacks based on a six-month-old Audit Commission report which he knows, as his increasingly discredited Government came up with this inspection regime, uses data from one or, in some cases, two years ago (The Westminster View, Harrow Times, September 18).

Wasteful to demolish

9:54am Thursday 25th September 2008

I agree with Gareth Thomas MP who says: “it is good news if the present leisure centre is not going to close”. In the leading article of September 11, what strange language has been used, eg: “...people should look beyond protests and criticism.” It is every citizen’s right to do so and councillors and their plans are not exempt from it.

First broken promise

9:55am Thursday 25th September 2008

Boris Johnson’s recent significant move as Mayor was to announce a huge hike of at least six per cent (in some cases more) on bus and tube fares. For bus passengers using Oyster pay as you go this will mean a jump from 90p to £1 – an increase of 11 per cent. A single tube journey across two zones will go up from £2 to £2.20 – an increase of ten per cent. This will hit all Londoners hard and especially those on low incomes.
