I nearly always read Letters to the Editor, so I thought I’d write my own.

On Friday, Comic Relief asked for five pounds to save a life in Africa.

Letter: As one of the many unemployed people in the West Midlands, I feel I must make a point about how the Jobcentres are treating people who have lost their jobs, many through no fault of their own.

Letter: Further to your report on Wolverhampton’s Community Safety Awards (January 15), I had the privilege of attending this ceremony in the mayoral suite.

Experts are predicting that fitting speed limiters to cars will save lives.

Shame on  Wolverhampton councillors for even thinking of these proposed cuts. At least 12 of them will directly affect the old, the infirm, and the vulnerable.

Letters: One of your readers, Mrs Monica Wilkes, of Finchfield, sent me a cutting from your edition of November 22 concerning the Wolverhampton Tank.
