Into Europe

Sir: Your leading article earlier this year, entitled Iniquitous Bill,' (February 19), was the finest and most succinct exposition of the treachery of Common Market membership that I have seen.

Mr Hugh Ross Williamson's admirable letter lately summarised that whole outlook to which we are now subjected: England's integrity and independence, achieved through a thousand years of struggle, outweighed in the Grocer's scales.

I wonder whether the various anti-EEC groups would consider combining one day in December to meet at Traitor's Gate, and to burn Mr Heath in effigy at the nearest permissible point? Such a gesture. if properly organised, would serve to dissociate ourselves publicly from the wretched caperings of the Fanfare for Europe brigade, who seek with boundless hypocrisy to bring the great heritage of European civilisation (which has never known any frontiers for civilised men) into the service of the soulless financier, the philistine, and the commercial traitor, who have created only deserts of industrial discontent.
