SO M Burcher is "delighted" to read that the Northwick Theatre my be converted, at public expense, to house asylum seekers (You Say, September 5), and says that "we all must accommodate those poor unfortunate people".

I wonder how many "poor unfortunates" M Burcher plans to accommodate in his/her house, or perhaps he/she already offers accommodation to some poor unfortunate homeless British citizen?

I also wonder just how much of his/her income tax, if he/she pays any, M Burcher would like to see spent on this project and others like it?
