Call off your mosque demo

MR GASH'S letter (Stop them preaching hate, Harrow Observer, October 29) on behalf of the SIOE (Stop the Islamification of Europe) is disingenuous and inaccurate.Read

Setting the record straight

BOTH the front-page headline story and the comment piece in the Observer earlier this month contained a number of serious inaccuracies and falsehoods regarding Harrow Council's support of Black History Month. These must be corrected.Read

Please help find Chester

MY CAT Chester was being taken to Medivet, in Northolt Road, South Harrow, on October 20, and when we got out of the car in front of the vets he started going berserk in his basket and managed to escape.Read

PO thrown to the wolves

HARROW Council's recent announcement that they will be providing business rate relief for small businesses trading in Harrow will, I'm sure, be most welcomed by small retailers, small companies and their employees across the area.Read

Early days for waste plan

COUNCILLOR Philip O'Dell's letter (October 15), in which he expressed concern over my enthusiasm for the proposed waste plant at the Kodak site, made for bizarre reading; not least because he appears to have forgotten calling the proposal "something we should have been doing two or three years ago".Read
