LETTER: Thousand voters showed support

I appreciate that Mr Shipton (a relation to our revered Ed-in-chief ?) has longheld grievances against a number of our local councillors - but why so vociferous against Helena? And to recommend reading Dale Carnegie ‘How to win friends and influence people’ appeared simply too tongue-in-cheek for me.
However, I note Dale Carnegie wrote his book in the aftermath of his own failure and great personal pain - he divorced in 1931 . . . so maybe there’s still hope for lesser mortals like us? To quote him directly: ‘Any fool can criticise, complain, and condemn - and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.’
