Interesting how Garth Crooks thinks Wilshere has no
objections to someone representing England as long as he came "as a child-whose
parents lived here, paid taxes". (England and the English", 11/10/13) Shouldn`t
our national teams, in all sports, be made up of people who pay their full and
proper share of taxes, not just have parents who do so? They all talk of how
proud they are to represent their country, but if it doesn`t run to paying the
correct tax so that it can actually be governed in a way that benefits the whole
population, such pride is not worth a great deal. In fact, the same should apply
to all who are appointed to represent this country, whether it be in politics,
the judiciary, or the civil service!
