THE WORDS "democracy" and "justice" are totally abused in modern Britain, primarily because the concepts have been so cruelly destroyed by our political establishment – this wretched Labour Government being the worst offender.

rived at a truly dangerous point.
Contempt for public opinion is seen on a daily basis.
The story, There's no stopping Le Clem (Mail, November 14) illustrates my point perfectly.
This asbestos-ridden, toxic hulk has been refused entry on health and safety grounds from India, Turkey, Greece and Bangladesh.

Who granted this permission? Not an accountable democratically-elected body but three law lords.
The benefactor of their decision, Able UK, you will recall was refused permission to dismantle the so-called ghost ships by Hartlepool Borough Council.
This in turn was overturned by the Appeals Tribunal, again an unaccountable quango.
My respect for the efforts of Iris Ryder and Jean Kennedy to protect the health and well-being of present and future generations is on record.
The people of this country must take back control of their destiny via the ballot box by soundly rejecting the political establishment that has so cruelly betrayed them.
