SIR – Our MPs never had ‘moral authority,’ Mr Foster, but we did expect them to run Britain with our interests in mind.
MPs are discredited now because they clearly have no power over what our government does.
We can only guess at who or what runs Britain but it seems the powerful BBC runs our immigration policy and promotes a multicultural Britain while Wall Street financiers plunder our wealth.
My guess is that since 9/11 our foreign policy and military and security services have been under American control while our political future lies in negotiating what influence we can have over Britain with 500 million EU citizens in 27 countries.
