Madam, - It has been said that as a nation we have lost our sense of outrage - and to a large extent this appears to be so. Therefore it is heartening to see that 10 opponents of double taxation went to jail rather than compromise their principles.
While we have working-class heroes such as these, Clare Daly and Joe Higgins, our sense of outrage is in good hands.
Maybe a few more of us should reconnect with our sense of outrage and tell Mr Cullen and the rest of this rotten government exactly where to stick their double taxation, stealth taxes and the rest of their grubby little scams. - Yours, etc.,
DERMOT O'SHEA, Meadow Grove, Churchtown, Dublin 16.
Madam, - I suppose a monster protest by those who have paid and are in favour of the bin charges, would be out of the question? - Yours, etc.,
MAURICE F. McDONOUGH, Edenbrook Manor, Dublin 14.
