Toffs vote BNP

From John Storey Sir: Rod Liddle asserts that 'nobody with any social standing, or in possession of a decent education or good breeding, thinks the BNP anything other than utterly ghastly' (Thought for the day, 25 September).

My late father was knighted by the Queen and I went to a public school and then gained degrees from Oxford and the ILSE. I was formerly a practising barrister. I voted for the BNP in the Euro-elections and have pledged regular donations to the party since then,
