DAVID Quarrie (Letters, August 7) writes about selling off playing fields. His comments do not appear to be correct. He suggests that Labour and the Conservatives have sold off thousands of acres of school playing fields.
When in power, it was Labour that did away with physical education in schools; the Conservatives have always been in favour of physical education in schools. Labour did away with any form of sports in schools.
