I WRITE in response to the letter from R Wildmoor (Shuttle, April 19) in which he states that "a vote for Dr Taylor will leave the people of Wyre Forest in the wilderness for the next four or five years".

It may come as a surprise to Mr Wildmoor, but the majority of local people feel that even with having had David Lock as their MP for the last four years, they are already in the wilderness.
