Contrary to the advice of our nearest record shop, which assured customers it was available only as a download, the single You Can’t Always Get What You Want, released to honour the memory of Jo Cox, is available as a CD from pledgemusic.com. It may be too late for the day itself but their prompt delivery service should ensure that it can still make a timely contribution to the season of goodwill.

• Enough of lozzucker (Letters, 24 December). Many years ago I worked in a small sweet and tobacconist shop in Uxbridge. Every day Mrs Dean would buy her ciggies. We always had a bit of banter with her, and as she was leaving, she always said, “And I don’t want any more of your larrup!” We thought it meant “none of your cheek”. But we now believe it means a beating. Anyway, larrup is a lovely word.

• It’s obvious how Murray Hedgcock the Brexiteer (Letters, 23 December) should behave to his “liberal elite” (ie remainer) family members over Christmas. He should apologise for his appalling misjudgment and maintain a low profile.

• Like Murray Hedgcock, I’m a Guardian-reading Brexiteer. But his trust in the Guardian presenting a balanced view is misplaced. Our esteemed organ has clearly nailed its colours to the metrocentric remoan cause.
