In our household we regularly enjoyed yorkshire pudding with mother’s homemade blackberry vinegar after the Sunday roast (Yorkshire puddings: three weird, delicious ways to eat Britain’s favourite regional delicacy, 26 July). The special vinegar also kept us free of sore throats during the winter.

• Favourite treat: a mini yorkshire pudding with a tinned apricot half and a dollop of cream or ice-cream.

• When Coutts, NatWest and the BBC are scurrying to apologise to the most divisive, objectionable man in British politics, we are clearly lost as a nation.

• Keir Starmer has been accused of sitting on the fence, but this misrepresents the facts. The truth is, he’s in the vicinity of the fence, but has not yet been able to make up his mind whether to sit on it or not.
Tim Rossiter
Crickhowell, Powys

• In recent years it’s been my practice in my constituency to keep the Tories out by voting SNP (current MP the estimable Joanna Cherry). Will Labour expel me if they find out (Letters, 25 July)?
Sue Leckie
Edinburgh

• It must be gratifying to the Tories that so many Guardian letter writers tell people not to vote Labour.
Peter Brooker
