So, secondary schools in Wales are going online (Report, 10 December). A tough but sensible decision in the circumstances. The only issue is accessibility. All of a sudden Jeremy Corbyn’s manifesto commitment to give all free internet access seems a good idea after being dismissed by many as an election ploy.

• One day we’ll recognise that we may have read the last obituary that cites a Kindertransport journey (Otto Hutter obituary, 10 December). Doing so we should nod at the staggering contribution that this group brought to us. Contemporary migration has an equivalent richness and importance, but the impact of this population movement astonishes.

• Re the letter (7 December) about recipes for those on their own at Christmas, a number of years ago some friends, finding themselves at home on Christmas Day without family, decided to have “all the trimmings”, without the turkey. It cuts out cleaning the roasting tin and you can have as many pigs in blankets as you want. I seem to remember that they also had bacon sandwiches and coffee in bed.

• Re William Shakespeare’s vaccination (Letters, 10 December), I hope he was not pricked in his thumbs as nothing good will follow.

• Despite this government’s Comedy of Errors, let’s hope that for Shakespeare, and all those vaccinated, All’s Well That Ends Well.
