LETTERS – Snowflake? This is no joke John

Conservative MP Sir John Hayes called people preparing for the heatwave ‘cowards’ and ‘snowflakes’. (PA)

Let me give John a little advice. You will personally know I am no snowflake so take it from me that as you grow older or if you develop certain health conditions, you will find that extreme temperatures affect you more severely.

Your turn will come, so don’t knock anyone who experiences difficulties in a heatwave or very cold weather.

In addition we don’t all have your advantage of a very high income with which to mitigate adverse conditions.
