\u2018We\u2019re just not doing it\u2019 says reader, on preparing for war<\/h2>\n

So we must all prepare for war? Why? For what? Sorry Messrs Starmer, Macron, Merz and Rutte, we\u2019re just not doing it.<\/p>\n

We know ordinary Russians don\u2019t want war either. So why should we all die?<\/p>\n

Europe has had enough of wars for centuries. It\u2019s time to find another way. We\u2019re not going to be lions led by donkeys any more. Just say no!\u00a0T, Glasgow<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reader says we must \u2018remember we are part of NATO\u2019, in face of war threat<\/h2>\n

Anyone from the UK scared by stories of\u00a0Russia<\/a>, please remember: The UK is part of Nato, which includes the\u00a0US<\/a>,\u00a0Germany<\/a>,\u00a0France<\/a>,\u00a0Poland<\/a>\u00a0and others.<\/p>\n

Our \u2018jellyfish politicians\u2019 won\u2019t stand up to Trump<\/h2>\n

Thank goodness that the BBC have the guts to stand up to Trump because our jellyfish politicians won\u2019t.\u00a0Ian, Glasgow<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sarah Alcock represents the \u2018ethos of dedicated medical staff\u2019<\/h2>\n

I have tremendous admiration for Sarah Alcock (Metro paper, Wed), the nurse who is giving up her Christmas to work at her neo-natal clinic (despite it being her first as a mum) and to her husband, Dave, for supporting her. Resident doctors on strike take note that this is the ethos of dedicated medical staff.\u2028Elaine, Islington<\/strong><\/p>\n

Christmas puns galore\u2026<\/h2>\n

Here\u2019s a Christmas joke for you. Why did\u00a0Carol Vorderman<\/a>\u00a0turn down a marriage proposal from Bryan Singer, the US film director? She didn\u2019t want to be a Carol Singer.\u00a0George Radley, Warley<\/strong><\/p>\n

And another\u2026<\/h2>\n

To all my friends in the southern hemisphere, this coming Sunday will mark the winter solstice here and your summer solstice there.<\/p>\n
