Your Say writer gets his letter in the Telegraph

Just a quickie - perusing the papers over a mug of tea this morning, we noticed that one of our Your Say writers John Preece has got a letter in the Telegraph. It's a response to a very critical article in the same paper on Monday, questioning Gordon Brown's commitment to spending $15 billion on aid for education. As John puts it: "How does one remove a corrupt government? A £6 billion war for regime change? Or maybe one builds a few schools and improves the standard of education, so that the people can change their country by themselves." Nice one, John.

Nice one John I read the Blog on this one on the Telegraph web and was so mad I thought I was going to blow up!

It is the Ignorance of the standard reader in the Telegraph that is our challenge as citizens we need to take on. How can change their views?!
