PLEASE allow me to express my delight at now being able to purchase my Lancashire Evening Telegraph (and also my favourite national daily) at outlets that do not offend decent Christian folk by having pornography displayed left, right and centre.
I have heard the argument put forward by the peddlers of porn who go under the title of newsagent, that they will be driven out of business if the protectionism that has existed for so long is not kept in place.
I have just one thing to say to that argument - the sooner the better!
Maybe then I can take my grandchildren with me to buy a newspaper without fear of embarrassment for any of us.
