I STRONGLY object to the proposed closures of the residential homes in Lancashire.

I am chairman of Worsley House Action Group and we are fighting all the way and beyond. They cannot get away with what they are proposing.

It is the most outrageous thing possible to cause so much anxiety to the very people who fought for this country, who worked and paid their taxes and National Insurance in good faith, who brought up families without burdening the system.

They had no family credit, income support, housing benefits and this is how they are repaid.

If they continue with these closures the Labour Party will have lost their voters. Labour used to be for the people. What happened?

P GORDON (Mrs), Radcliffe Road, Fleetwood.
