MAYBE I differ from Chris Titley in that I have a deep admiration and respect for our Queen and I am loyal to the monarchy. But it was the unfairness and injustice of his article 'About these silly rumours' (November 12) that outraged me. His cheap attack on the Prince Of Wales was one of the most tasteless and disgraceful articles I have had the misfortune to read.

It shames us that our local paper is party to such deplorably low standards of reporting and comment.
