Letters: The EU has allowed me to treat 27 other countries as if they are, in a small but important way, my own, writes Kira Gartzou-Katsouyanni. And Robin Lustig remembers a brief stint as a Brussels correspondent

The other day, Boris Johnson promised to stop EU migrants from treating the UK “as if it’s part of their own country” . That’s exactly what the European Union has allowed me to do: treat 27 other countries as if they are, in a small but important way, my own. It’s one of the greatest things about the EU.

Penny for your thoughts: 1) We're all 'EU Citizens' 2) 'EU Citizens' have been contributing to British society for 30+ years 3) British media has continually peddled hate, yet EU citizens remain respectful

Jo Swinson: PM's 'dog-whistle' tactics putting EU citizens at riskLib Dem leader to condemn PM’s approach to immigration during campaign trip to Bath Jo Swinsons squirrel whistle puts whole ecosystems at risk. Such is her lust for their stringy meat. Also, she fucking died on bbcqt tonight, painfully. Where is her credibility? She will twist herself into pretzel shapes for political gain. This is someone who consistently voted for austerity policies which disproportionately impacted women of colour. Now she cares about minority groups in our society? bullshit! vote Labour. Good politicians have interesting personalities. They are not Saints. Being a politician & Journalist, Boris Johnson has superb skill, smile & tactfulness to answer questions by Media interviewers. He even chooses his interviewers. He deserves your votes to be on way to success.
