In reply to Mr Fleming's treasonable letter (June 18), how could anyone describe the Queen as "ancient" or "doddering"?

If ever there was a perfect example of an attractive, healthy, well turned-out, mature, citizen, the Queen fits the picture perfectly.

Please, God, we never have to suffer the degradation of a republic, with the sickening antics of President Clinton or the notorious Kennedys.

Long live the monarchy and perhaps send Mr Fleming to the Tower.
