A BIG thank you to the Wiltshire Times for your fair and balanced coverage of the referendum campaign. You published many letters from me and other people on the Remain side and also from Leave.

There are difficult days ahead for the country, which makes it more important than ever for people who believe in international co-operation and social equality to come together.

Social inequality is our real problem, not the EU. The gap between rich and poor is bigger in this country than anywhere else in the developed world except the United States. This makes people unhappy, fearful and resentful, and some of these feelings wrongly focused on Europe. In fact all the other European countries are more equal than us.

Whatever government emerges, equality is the issue they must deal with.
