MAST HELP: Regarding Primo Marinetti's letter about the Mead Way mast campaign (Mast Campaign Hijacked By BNP, News Shopper, November 16). My mother lives in Mead Way and was delighted the British National Party supported the residents' campaign. My mother has never voted for the BNP and is not racist. However, the BNP is the only political party to support the campaign, which is in contrast to the silence by the mainstream parties on this issue. At least the BNP, whatever Mr Marinetti thinks of them, is a political party which seems to be interested in issues which affect people.

HANDY RETURN: I would like to thank the person who found and handed in my handbag after I left it on a 227 bus. I was glad to get it back with the contents intact but my main concern was my keys falling into the wrong hands. Knowing they were safe before I went to bed that night saved me a lot of worry, which at six months pregnant I could really do without. Thanks again for your kind act of honesty.
