If drug companies raise pricing when drugs are debranded (NHS taken for a ride?, 22 November), why do we not establish a company owned by the NHS or directly by the government to supply the drugs at cost?

• Jonathan Freedland suggests “go to settings and select ‘show most recent’” (Opinion, 18 November).

We may be avid Guardian readers but we were also teenyboppers in the early 70s and Cassidy was my first love!Caroline BranneyLondon• You made my day!

• I will allow Alan Greenslade-Hibbert, John Doherty and Steve Vanstone (Letters, 17 and 18 November) their purist approach to the pronunciation of Italian words, provided they support my campaign to reverse the Italianisation of the Spanish word “chorizo”, whose soft Z is not, actually, pronounced like the double Z in “pizza”. I don’t know what they’re going to do about “pistachio”, though…Isabella StoneMatlock, Derbyshire• I will allow Alan Greenslade-Hibbert, John Doherty and Steve Vanstone (Letters, 17 and 18 November) their purist approach to the pronunciation of Italian words, provided they support my campaign to reverse the Italianisation of the Spanish word “chorizo”, whose soft Z is not, actually, pronounced like the double Z in “pizza”.
