? I agree that the Labour party should not target the seat of Caroline Lucas (Letters, 22 March). I am, however, still angry that the Green party put up a candidate in Ed Balls’ constituency in 2015: as a consequence, they let in the Tory. I suppose it meant we could watch Balls on Strictly Come Dancing.

? Our Latin teacher taught us No Vile Aunts Go Down Alleys, which I remember more than the declensions it represents.
