Angie Zelter asked last week: “I wonder how many of your readers know there was a demonstration last Saturday outside one of the many US bases in the UK?”

The answer Angie is none until you bothered us with this pointless information.

She continues that she got rid of nuclear weapons from RAF Lakenheath in 2000.

It should be no surprise how deluded and self important professional protesters, agitators and nuisances like Ms Zelter are.

I believe it was Geopolitics and Nato that brought about the end of the Cold War and the ‘useful idiots’ as the leaders of the USSR called them who castigated the West and gave the totalitarian East a free ride who delayed it.

She continues about the carbon foot print of the US military.

Maybe she would focus instead on what the Russian military are doing in the Ukraine.

Interesting that Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons when it became independent and has been invaded by the Russians with terrible loss of life.

Thank heavens we have a nuclear deterrent in the UK with or without the US.

Instead of pointlessly protesting over here, maybe Angie and her ilk could leave us alone and go and protest in Red Square and see what happens.

Good luck with that.
