Re your letters on art, or the question of what is art (19 March), I am reminded of two gallery visits. In one, a friend and I were looking at an “installation” in the foyer, involving canvas and a brush and pan, to discover they were workmen’s tools awaiting some repair work. In another gallery, in a large bare room with a stepladder at one end, my husband asked when the exhibition would be put up, only to be told that this was it.

• Regarding the Wordsearch in Friday’s paper (14 March), did no one else notice “colors”? Has the Guardian been Trumped?

• My thanks to Frances Ryan (These cruel benefit cuts will rob security from so many – but Labour will lose something crucial too, 19 March) and to Jon Davis for his devastatingly relevant cartoon (19 March) – they have convinced me that it’s time to leave the Labour party after an unbroken 61 years of membership.

• Prof Alexie Leauthaud-Harnett need not look too far to understand the weakening of dark matter (Report, 19 March): God has seen the state of modern politics, read the “open consultation” on the evisceration of personal independence payment by a Labour government, and given up.

• We thought Labour’s election slogan, “Change”, meant change for the better. How wrong we were.
