REGARDING your front page story "Pro Taliban March Blasted" (LET, November 12), I don't always agree with Jack Straw, but I must with what he said about this march.

For people to support the evil Osama bin Laden and the now ex-rulers of Afghanistan, the Taliban, was not a very good idea.

What was the government, the police and the council thinking about when they allowed this march?

The ringleaders should be expelled to Afghanistan where they can support bin Laden and the Taliban at first hand.
