READING Mr McGuire’s letter, I must reply that it is one heck of a step to blame a Newport political party for causing this defacing near the memorial! Because the party has the same initials as that on the blocks does not mean they had any connection.
There is all sorts of this vandalism in the town. Quite correct to bemoan the graffiti (any graffiti!) but to blame a party who have just fought an election is pretty cheap.
Perhaps people should be careful who they cast blame on before attempting to publicise it.
I am certain that The Independent Party had nothing whatever to do with this and you should apologise unreservedly Mr McGuire.
