SIR – The so-called silent majority has spoken in Saturday’s landslide referendum result. They said yes.
A tranche of our elected representatives publicly called for a ‘no’ vote. Many did not even want a referendum in the first place.
It is now time for them to take stock of whether they truly represent their constituents. Are they fit for purpose?
Only time, and the electorate, will tell.
Kind regards,
