SIR, I think what Robert Burkett of the Green Party wrote is a load of cods wallop, as we say.

He says the only way to stop over population is to educate and encourage smaller families in the UK. Our people don't need educating about contraception. The average family of the British white people is 2-4 children. It's the people who come here who should be educated how to cut down their family as most of them don't believe in family planning and have as many children as they want. There won't be enough food here for our own people. The biggest problem is not to let any more people in to our small island, but they will never learn. We are building houses everywhere because there are too many people in our country. Send them all home and then there would be plenty of houses and flats to go round.
