Well said, Ken Strudwick (Letters, November 27).

As well as the bus pass you mentioned the Labour Government put the way of us pensioners, don’t forget all the other goodies they’ve showered us with – 81 back-door stealth taxes and the massive increases in our state pension.

I bet I know what’s top of your Christmas list – a new drum for your worn-out one.
