A group of retired senior staff at City & Guilds met its chair of trustees, Ann Limb, and chief executive, Kirstie Donnelly, on 2 December to find out more about the sale (The Guardian view on the City & Guilds privatisation: big bonuses cast a shadow over this deal, 21 January). We complained that a large number of stakeholders, including pensioners, had been told nothing about it officially. Limb apologised for this “oversight” and promised that a communication would be sent out. We are still waiting.

But she needn’t worry – a lot of people have it. It’s not unusual.

Donald Trump’s claim about Nato troops in Afghanistan is not only blatantly untrue, but a little rich coming from a man who stayed “a little off the frontlines” during the Vietnam war (Starmer rebukes Trump over ‘frankly appalling’ remarks on Nato troops in Afghanistan, 23 January).

From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank Suella Braverman for making Reform UK that little bit less electable (Suella makes the ultimate sacrifice as she ditches Tories for Reform, 26 January).
