WHAT does it take to convince the United Nations and Western governments that Netanyahu is committing war crimes and has been for several months in his directed attacks on Gaza and its people?
I READ Ann Leitch’s letter on Saturday with interest. When we were in lockdown I timed my “routine” round our First Minister’s daily appearances on TV.
I WRITE on the eve of Believe in Scotland’s march and rally in Glasgow, and in the wake of a couple of pieces in this paper, Jonathan Shafi’s of April 16 (“The Yes movement is back at square one and needs a complete renewal”) and Richard Walker’s of April 19 (“Independence is the only goal that Yes movement has to be unified on”). Both writers discern, correctly, that the movement for independence is in a bind.
HAVING read the two most recent articles in The National concerning the cancellation of the “Harry Potter” train – most recently by Steph Brawn on April 4 – I’m disappointed that neither article mentions the time that West Coast Railways (WCR) have had in order to fix their door problem.
WELL-WRITTEN, Jonathon Shafi (The Yes movement is back at square one and needs a complete renewal, Apr 16). You nailed the problem, but not the solution. The solution for an independent Scotland can only be achieved through unity of purpose, not factionalism, division, sabotage, back-stabbing, entryism, depression and defeatism.
I WAS greatly relieved to read the principled letter in Saturday’s National headed “Bringing an end to the Bute House Agreement is long overdue” by Niall Christie
IN reply to Rod Dalitz letter in Friday’s letters. According to the Costco website all the Scotch whisky would be unaffected by the minimum unit price increase as they’re all above the MUP, at least according to the BBC site.
WHILE setting the fire (a log burner, but more of that later), my attention was drawn to an article by Owen Jones in The National on March 30 (Starvation may prove to be Israel’s deadliest crime) which I had missed or failed to read! I was appalled at the attached photograph of Yezen Al-Kfarna, 10, receiving medical treatment for malnourishment.
I MUST say what an excellent article presented by your correspondent, Mark Brown
