LETTER: They should be ashamed

I was extremely upset following the remembrance Sunday ceremony at Ayscoughfee Hall.

This service is not meant to be political at all and to see the Labour Party lay a wreath was extremely bad form.

The Conservatives and Liberal Democrats don’t lay wreaths as this is a non-political event.

I hope they are ashamed of themselves.
Having someone like Corbyn heading their ranks, my father would be turning in his grave have a wreath laid by them.

Can someone please explain how the Labour Party are allowed to laid a wreath when no other party does so or has? This is a despicable move and they should hang their head in shame.

I will not be voting labour this time despite voting in the last election. They have lost one voter through point scoring!
