DAVID Sumberg's "Letter from Europe" (March 12) was fairly thin on the activities of 300 million people now in the "Euro-zone". It is now a fact whether he supports it or not!

Can we therefore please have some acknowledgement from our MEP of the money pouring into the North West from EU community funds, to keep down unemployment and improve trade. His words sell us short.

Mr Sumberg should open his mind to the new constitution now being made for the 21st century. Dinosaurs are out!
