Letter: Hoddle's offence

Sir: I am very worried that a vengeful media, sanctimonious MPs and a spineless FA are able to suppress anyone's right to free speech. The Government and the press and television are the traditional guardians of our freedoms. I do not trust them with my freedom any longer.

What has happened to Glenn Hoddle could happen to any one of us if we do not toe the "correct" line. May our gods help us all.
