I remember how relieved I felt when Boris Johnson was deposed as prime minister that I wouldn’t have to see any more pictures of him in his running kit; then when Rishi Sunak went the same way, it was his hoodies that no longer enraged me; now I find myself seething at Keir Starmer’s glasses. The only way I can bring my anger levels down is by recalling Dominic Cummings; at least I know things could be worse.

Lord Lucan? Shergar? How long does Wes Streeting think his audience’s memories are (Sue Gray ‘shot JFK’ and is ‘hiding Lord Lucan’, jokes Wes Streeting, 22 September)? And surely “Who shot JFK?” should be “Who shot JR?”. Do keep up.

I have no objection to Sue Gray earning more than the prime minister (Sue Gray’s £170,000 pay prompts fury among Labour advisers, 18 September). But I also believe no qualified nurse should earn less.

Sue Gray may get paid more than the prime minister, but he gets loads more freebies.

To express the correct level of disbelief, try saying “work clothes” in the style of Peter Kay saying: “Garlic bread? Garlic? Bread?”

Voters will for ever see Keir Starmer’s glasses before hearing his message. Solution? Contact lenses.
