I await with interest the UK government’s response to the Sudanese refugee crisis. Given the precedent of providing refuge for those escaping the war in Ukraine, we could reasonably expect that the same would apply to those fleeing violence in Sudan, and that British families would open their doors to them. After all, Britain has been far more closely associated with Sudan than with Ukraine, having had a history of occupation stretching back 150 years.Douglas CurrieEdinburgh

After reading Andy Beckett’s piece on profiteering (Britain once rioted over the price of bread. What would it take for us to confront greedflation today?, 28 April), I went for my weekly shop to a major supermarket (bill double what it used to be). I wanted a small tub of mustard and cress, but it was 60p. I went to my local farm shop, where the same thing cost me 30p.Helen PeirceTeignmouth, Devon

Re the letters on the local elections (30 April), when a longstanding local Conservative councillor who was delivering leaflets was challenged on the party’s record in government, they claimed to be “just a foot soldier”.Jim WilsonBroughton, Oxfordshire

Perhaps “the value of monarchy to our country” (Letters, 27 April) is to be found in the same cupboard as Jacob Rees-Mogg’s “Brexit opportunities”.Mark Reeves West Kirby, Merseyside

Surely King Charles should be swearing his allegiance to us (Minister defends ‘offensive’ coronation-day oath to King Charles, 30 April)?Pete FosterDevizes, Wiltshire
