Guardian 21st July
According to George Orwell in The Road to Wigan Pier, cheap and nutritious fish and chips was one of the things that kept Britain from revolution during the economic crisis of the 1930s. They remain nutritious, but no longer cheap or even always easy to obtain (The long read, 20 July). Surely sorting this out is worthy of a pledge from Keir Starmer?

Time to say ‘Tartare!’ to years of Tory rule
Keith Flett expects Keir Starmer to pledge to sort out the cost and availability of nutritious fish and chips (Letters, 20 July). However, Labour’s first priority should be to batter the Tories at the next election, and, as of last Thursday, he has another Keir to help him.
