Your Letters

Dear Monitor, why, when the question of the North-South divide is raised, do Northerners take such a London-centric view of the South? There are plenty of lovely places in the South East alone to complain about; take Canterbury, Winchester, Guildford, Eastbourne and Royal Tunbridge Wells for starters. There's plenty of room for cultural belittlement outside of London, you know.

I find it strange that it was felt necessary to lock up Abu Qatada because "he was considering fleeing the UK". Given that the authorities were trying to deport him at the time, wouldn't that have just saved everyone a lot of trouble?

Looking at the strapline on this article - I wondered when we might see a similar gender-identifier on the top of the Monitor column.
