3:12pm Tuesday 6th May 2008
Sir - It is a given of human nature, that we are rarely satisfied with what we have: politicians, the media, and ad-men are well aware. Nothing wrong with that, provided the alternatives are positive and constructive. But if the Daily Mail, which purports to represent middle-Englanders, is to be believed, then we are indeed a nation of paranoid whingers.
