Sir, – There are two aspects to the separation/independence debate, one hilarious in its absurdity, positing a deprived Scotland dressed in English sackcloth, the other dangerous in its propensity as it implies Scots are the better politicians.

Sir, – Gus Logan asks who the band of militant secularists are who want to remove religious privilege (Letters, June 8).

Sir, – I was delighted to see your article about the much lamented King’s Theatre, one of Dundee’s unsung gems.

Sir, – I read Mr Scott’s letter (June 6) regarding his attendance at The Better Together meeting in Cupar with a growing sense of disbelief.

Sir, – We feel the latest moves by the pro- and anti-independence movements raise a great many concerns in particular the way they are targeting schools with information packs.

Sir, – I have to take issue with Robert IG Scott’s rather jaundiced synopsis of the current political position in Scotland (Letters, June 5).

Sir, – Dundee Labour’s housing spokesperson Councillor Gordon recently remarked that he was “staggered” by the scale of the bedroom tax crisis in Dundee. He is right to be concerned as 3,300 Dundonian households are affected by this policy.

Sir, – I read in Saturday’s Courier that Centrica has bought a 50% stake in Braes o’ Doune windfarm for £59 million. I calculate that in subsidy payments alone the 36-turbine factory will earn up to a guaranteed £180,000,000 over 25 years assuming each machine generates £200,000 annually in subsidy payments.

Sir, – The news that the MoD has not awarded a contract to Remploy in Dundee confirms what many have believed about this government from their recent actions.

Sir, – Surely there must now be zero tolerance of child sex abuse images being displayed on the internet after the murder of five-year-old April Jones by vile paedophile Mark Bridger.

Sir, – Reference your points of view piece, Nanny state interference (May 29). As a Liberal Democrat I value deeply an individual’s right to private space. I also believe that the moral and socially just onus is upon us all to protect vulnerable groups from harm.

Sir, – I am puzzled by the letter from Alan Bell (May 29) who seems to think that gay people, in league with the Government, are trying to rewrite his Bible.

Sir, – I appreciate the article by your assistant editor, Chris Ferguson, on “the sad ending” to Tayside House (May 28) was to some extent humanising the likely feelings of an unliked creation in its death throes.

Sir, – Reference the two reports on NHS Fife (May 25), some questions should be asked.

Sir, – When the call went out that all our Scottish regiments were to be amalgamated, I must say we were not too pleased.

Sir, – For several generations Dundee FC have suffered from a series of owner/directors whose policies have resulted in the position they now occupy.

Sir, – Like others I was dismayed at the State of Nature report findings which show a major decline in Scotland’s wildlife and biodiversity as highlighted by Sir David Attenborough on Wednesday.
