| Polly Toynbee portrays a rerun of the Brexit referendum as a way in which Labour can keep both Hull and Hampstead happy (Labour’s path to power lies in putting Brexit to the people, 19 September). It isn’t – it represents Hampstead refusing to listen to Hull and telling Hull to keep voting until it votes the “right” way. There would be no demand for a second vote if Hull had voted the “right” way in 2016. | Polly Toynbee portrays a rerun of the Brexit referendum as a way in which Labour can keep both Hull and Hampstead happy (Labour’s path to power lies in putting Brexit to the people, 19 September).

| Has Polly learned nothing from the fact that People’s Vote is funded by a millionaire businessman? The Labour party, to which I belong, should be very careful; in 2014 it procured a rejection of Scottish independence to the delight of the establishment, and in 2015 its Scottish MPs were reduced from 41 to one.Christopher Clayton(Former Hull resident)Waverton, Cheshire | Has Polly learned nothing from the fact that People’s Vote is funded by a millionaire businessman?
