Letter: Political animals

Sir: If the future of British politics is in the hands of a small coterie who are career politicians ("Blair's babes nudge for places at the top table", 14 August) then let us hope that the rules of inbreeding prevail.

What experience will this group bring to government in the future? Time to change the rules and ensure that we have government by those who have a direct experience of life before they enter politics.
