Get in real world and stop the spin

SIR – I read with astonishment John Shearon’s claim that Mr Brown had made a profit out of his sale of 395 tonnes of our gold reserves (more than half). This is totally untrue.

By mentioning the proposed sale he depressed the price of gold to a 20-year low and lost billions of pounds to this country. Where is the gold or the money now, John, from this faulty sale? Squandered, of course. Replaced by debt.

His next dreadfull action was raiding pension funds. Thousands have lost their pensions or had them reduced.

Who then does this Labour government attack? The 10 per cent tax band. What easy targets, John, the OAPs and low paid. John, please get into the real world and stop your spin.

Malcolm Doyle,
Ockeridge.
