Surely the old will be cared for by robots while watching endless pictures of kittens (The right is desperate for a solution to falling birthrates. Who’s going to tell them that the answer is immigration?, 31 May). As the population falls, there will be a glut of housing, which will become affordable, and so women will be able to have more children and the cycle will begin again, assuming that one or other of the megalomaniacs haven’t blown us all to smithereens first.

Nigel Farage has called for “pure, cold rage” (Starmer urges calm as far right seeks to exploit Henry Nowak murder, 2 June). Strangely enough, this is precisely what I have felt since he and his cronies cheated me out of my EU membership back in 2016.

Keir Starmer doesn’t believe that there is “two-tier policing” in this country. Oh really? At a peaceful vigil held in Trafalgar Square on 11 April, no fewer than 523 people, many of them pensioners, were arrested for holding signs protesting against genocide. Earlier this week, a violent racist mob brought terror to the streets of Southampton. Number of arrests? Two.
