Critical reception

I HAVE a New Year message for all those anonymous critics who regularly attack me on The Press website following any article or letter in which I feature.

Thank you. The more agitated you become, the more I know my comments are successfully hitting home.

It is your continued and predictable reaction which will encourage me to carry on my contributions throughout 2013.

Matthew Laverack, Lord Mayor’s Walk, York.
