Dear Sir Not that I am following this farrago in any detail, but it is the latest in a series of examples where public money is being expended on making a political point. I propose that a poll be conducted on the basis of a simple yes/no: Do you think that this investigation into Boris Johnson is a good idea? All those voting yes will be charged £250 towards the costs of the exercise....

Dear Sir I frequently receive a Low Battery Warning from my various electrical devices. Is this because I leave them on the floor around my armchair? Would placing them on top of cupboards reduce the number of warnings? These are important factors as we try to save electricity. I think that we should be told. Yours etc Concerned of Covingham

Dear Sir There is something very wrong in this campaign to have us all sign up for smart electricity meters. Looking at the benefits for me as a consumer then there is nothing that I can do with a smart meter that I can't do with what I have now. It may be that some things might be easier, but that is all....

Sir The evening before last, on national television, someone proposed murdering people in the UK because of their political belief. Had I appeared alongside them and proposed the similar murder of people of, say, a particular sexual persuasion, those who are transgender, belonging to a particular race or religion I would have been arrested and charged by now, but for the other person?...

Several of my friends on the Left, and others of similar persuasion, have been calling Liz Truss useless and a failure. How they can make such a judgement so soon into her tenure I can't understand, but could they be right (as opposed to Right of course)? Let's face it, perhaps they know a useless leader when they see one, for, after all, the Left has an extremely good track record of electing them to govern their own party. Yours etc Disgusted of Dorcan

Sir Anyone who thinks that education in the UK has not declined over the last three or four decades need only to read social media posts for a few minutes to see the lack of literacy on display. Of course the flaw in my argument is that they will either be unable to read such posts, or not be able to understand the appalling display of spelling and grammatical errors. Yours Disgusted of Dorcan

Another rationalisation is under way and I will be closing this page very soon. My cybernet presence will still be around at thatconsultantbloke.com albeit that I am a bit less prolific there than I used to be. Thanks for looking in.

Yesterday, during the tidying up of my blogs, I read something that I had written mentioning Dan Ruth an American columnist and Pulitzer Prize winner who I first encountered when he wrote for the Tampa Tribune. His politics differ from mine perhaps, but he has a way with words that drew me to his column whenever we were over in FLA....

The loss of my Queen last week was a shock. It had to come one day soon, but it all seemed so sudden when the news came that her family had been sudden followed a few hours later by the inevitable announcement. I am a Royalist and have been for as long as I can remember having thought about it. I would have been a Royalist in an earlier life too, even if it meant being, for a while, on the loading side....

The class war is really a middle class thing, hence the fact that we have an upper class, a lower class and a plethora of middle classes; upper, lower, not quite upper middle etc. However, that is to keep the pretentious people out of the peasantry where they do not want to be, nor do we peasants want them amongst us for that matter....
