GARY MUNDELL (HAS, Sept 19) wonders why there were people at the Last Night of the Proms singing patriotic songs with passion and gusto while waving EU flags.
I suggest that they were patriots who, like myself, believe that the UK would face a better future remaining in the EU.
Most experts believe that the UK will suffer economically under any form of Brexit, but that a ‘No Deal’ Brexit, which unfortunately looks to be increasingly likely, would be the worst.
I fail to understand how anyone who wants the UK to remain better off can be described as unpatriotic, while those who want to see us worse off are the only patriots.
