LETTERS – Queen should be female

Regarding the recent news that a male is entering for flower queen at Spalding Tulip Parade, the parade has just got up and running again after years of absence, his application makes a mockery of the efforts put in by the organisers.
If he wants to take part join the clowns and other participants who help make the parade jovial by walking between the floats but you are not welcome as a flower queen who is female and needs to be.
