Sir – The behaviour of Witney Allotment Association in threatening Patrick Churchill with eviction from his patch is utterly shameful. On one side, you have a man who fought bravely for this country, and gave us the freedom we all enjoy today. On the other, a rag tag group of self-appointed busy bodies, with nothing better to do with their time than persecute him.
Their craven bullying stands in such contrast to Mr Churchill’s bravery.
They, and Witney Town Council, which has put them in the position to persecute him, should beware.
People right across this country have great respect for Mr Churchill and his service – we won’t stand idly by if his retirement is disturbed.
