When Jack Letts went off to join the so-called Islamic State, then it was being funded, armed, trained, and very publicly supported by the United Kingdom and the United States. Or at least, it was being so on one side of the essentially imaginary Sykes-Picot Line. The side, in fact, on which he is still living.
All in all, £223 from his parents, or even the extra thousand of which they have been acquitted, ought to be the least of anyone's concerns, and they ought to have been a long way down the list of people who needed to stand to trial.
Another hung Parliament is coming, however, and we need our people to hold the balance of power in it. A new party will be registered before the House of Commons rises for the summer recess, even if I have to pay for it myself, ongoing lawfare or no ongoing lawfare.
And I will stand for Parliament here at North West Durham even if I can raise only the deposit, which I could do by going pretty overdrawn, although that was not how I was brought up. I would still prefer to raise the £10,000 necessary to mount a serious campaign, but I am no longer making my candidacy conditional on having done so. In any event, please email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com. Very many thanks.
