Letter: It's a royal knock-out

WILL SELF exercised too much gentlemanly restraint in his profile of that fiend in great-grandmother shape: the Queen Mother ("Bigoted, snobbish, profligate", 8 August). What? Not a word of her habit of farting in church when attending Black Mass? Of the signed photograph of Hitler beside her bed? Of the midnight orgies at Clarence House? Of her riding a broomstick round Windsor Great Park? Of her ravenous appetite for the flesh of working-class babies? Surely a decent republican family newspaper can present a better case for abolishing the monarchy and guillotining the entire Royal Family than this?
