As an exiled Salopian, the Shropshire Star forms part of my regular online reading.
Imagine my surprise earlier when I discovered that there is a spark of republicanism in my home town of Market Drayton, as shown by the following letter from Draytonian Andrew Lovatt.

The royal inequality gap is in direct contradiction to everything that 21st century Britain claims to stand for.
Keep up the good work, Andrew! You probably feel quite lonely. 🙂
