I FEEL I must write in answer to the letter from one of your contributors full of invective against the English Defence League.

Her letter denying the existence of our race perfectly encapsulates the current proliferation of nationalist groups, and there are many of them.

The politically correct seem to dislike everything that our heritage represents and attempt at every turn to belittle it.

Over the course of time this country has welcomed people from all over the world who wished to come and better their circumstances. They worked hard accepted our ways and gradually assimilated into the population.

Now, though, we have a different type of immigrant who refuses to assimilate and feels that we should adapt to their ways, all this with an ever increasing disrespect for us.

We have a history to be proud of and I for one will always defend it.
