The needs of many outweigh the needs of few

THE EDITOR: Congratulations to the THA’s Orville London for his firm and conscientious stance on the Pigeon Point issue. National leaders must be prepared to always act against self-seeking business conglomerates in order to preserve and maintain the common good. Private property concerns like those of the ANSA McAL group need to be regarded as secondary to the legitimate concerns of the wider national community.

As Mr Spock of Star Trek fame says “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few”. Such a statement may not apply in all circumstances but in my humble opinion it applies in this instance. Mr London’s position must serve to inspire similar actions on the part of the state on such matters as the price of bread and food items, cable prices and bank fees. Live long and prosper.
