WITH reference to the adjacent letters in your most recent issue. Michael Heylings – a well argued, rational, fact and evidence-based defence of the EU and its mutually beneficial relationship with the UK.

Anthony Reeve – nationalistic, chest-beating tosh crammed with disproven falsehoods reminiscent of the nonsense spouted by his fantasy PM-in-waiting Nigel Farage.

This is patent false equivalence, and printing propaganda like this is precisely the reason we’re knee-deep in the mire that is Brexit in the first place.
