Congratulations once again for such an interesting letter (Stan Mellings, LT, July 9) about Ronnie Biggs and how the justice system is failing to favour the victim rather than the perpetrator.

Like all the systems that seem to have failed or be failing at the present time, it is a pity Mr Melling being such a knowledgeable man you have never considered taking up politics.

You would get my vote.
