HARRY Mead stated in his column that France "just about hates our guts" (Echo, May 16).
Nobody in the world likes us Brits, Mr Mead, possibly bar the Americans. Come to think of it, some British people who write to Hear All Sides seem to hate this country too, yet they still live here and reap the rewards that make us so special.
My suggestion to these people is simple: if you dislike our nation, our Christian religion and our gallant history, then move elsewhere. You won't be missed.
Be proud to be British, folks, and continue to fly our flag with pride. I always will.
Christopher Wardell, Darlington.
