COUNCILLOR Rod Staines recently suggested that I had missed the point of one of his previous letters concerning Mike Foster MP.

I think not. I endeavoured to portray Mike as the decent, caring man he is. As an MP he has always been attentive to the sensitivities, desires and needs of his constituents.

Another person for whom I have the greatest admiration is courageous Anita Knittel. Clearly she has the greatest compassion for humans and animals alike.
