Further to your article on the front page of last week’s Gazette & Herald, we write in support of Coun White’s poster.
This house has made up its political mind, and we believe has a right to prevent unwanted callers knocking on our door. We welcome those who know us by name. W e have the same feelings about certain religious groups and political parties calling unwarranted at our door.
No amount of cold-calling will dissuade us from our opinions and decisions. People have a free choice to put these posters in their windows or not, they are using a tool provided. This also protects older residents from late callers and those who have trouble getting to the door.
Peter and Ann Bowley, Pickering
