Dear Mrs Charman,
Re:- Lydd school head who had Marcus the sheep slaughtered quits
I have just heard on the news that you had resigned.

What a shame!

I have two children and, although not farmers, we have chickens, ducks and a goose. I have taught my children that as long as we treat animals properly, we should not be ashamed of being carnivorous.

We eat chicken, duck and goose. My children are not traumatised and treat our animals with great care.

Please reconsider your decision, Mrs Charman: we need people like you to teach our children the lesson of life.

You have all my support

Noel Laurence
