Spalding-area MP questioned over PM and celebrity's call for help on ovarian cancer
Here are the readers' letters from the Lincolnshire Free Press of Tuesday, April 19, 2022.
Do you support the Prime Minister or not?
It was previously stated by South Holland & the Deepings MP Sir John Hayes that he would be prepared to make a statement on the Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s parties held at No 10 Downing Street when full investigations had been carried out.
The Police have now carried out full investigations and issued fines for breaking the law regarding the parties held at No.10 Downing Street during the lockdown period.
Are you now prepared to make a statement? Do you support or not support the Prime Minister and the chancellor Rishi Sunak for tax and parties and for misleading not only Parliament but the whole country.

Women are being failed as the awareness crisis in ovarian cancer deepens. Symptoms are being ignored by those experiencing them and GPs.
Target Ovarian Cancer is urging people to sign open letters to the government telling them what is needed to combat the crisis. We desperately need to make progress in knowledge of the symptoms.
In 2010 my mother, the actress Marjie Lawrence, was diagnosed with ovarian cancer just three weeks before she died. Had we and her doctors been aware of the symptoms, Marjie might be alive today. If diagnosed at the earliest stage, nine in 10 women will survive. But two thirds of women are diagnosed late, when the cancer is harder to treat.
Please take just two minutes to learn the symptoms and spread the word.
The main symptoms are: persistent bloating, feeling full or having difficulty eating, tummy pain, and needing to wee more often or more urgently.
