I AGREE with DM Deamer (Letters, November 22). York has been taken over by southerners and other incomers.

This influx of people is responsible for many of our problems, especially traffic congestion and increased house prices.

When companies come here, they often relocate their staff as well and this adds to the problem.

I and many other York-born citizens really do sometimes feel like aliens in our own city.

Mr D Wardell, Malton Road, York.
