I REALLY hope David Keane (Evening Times letters June 15) is being tongue in cheek about having to get off his bike to push it around cars parked on the pavement.

Cyclists should not be cycling on the pavement, it is dangerous and selfish.

I am fed up almost getting run over by pavement cyclists.

WHILST I totally agree with David Keane that cars should not be parked on the pavement, I believe cyclists should not be riding there either.

Having working for some years in Glasgow city centre I know how it feels to be put at risk of life and limb by these pavement riding cyclists.

Pavements are for pedestrians!

SO Philip Green makes an apology to BHS staff regarding the demise of the chain after he bailed out for £1.

What does he expect? A medal?!

How is his apology going to help the 11,000 staff with the demise of £571 million black hole in their pension fund?

Redundancy payments could be jeopardised too. How dare he patronise the hard working staff with his so called apology.

He should be held accountable for his actions, it’s criminal.

Get it sorted Mr Green and do the right thing for the loyal staff.

REGARDING the named persons policy, this is Scotland - we can leave school at 16, get married at 16, have sex at 16, vote at 16, have babies at 16 but have to have a named person looking after our interests till we are 18!

How daft is that? How will that work - and how much will it cost?

READING about the cars being set on fire in Garnethill, (Evening Times June 16), I do feel sympathy for the residents.

But, as a home owner myself, I have to bite the bullet when repairs are required on the road surface at the rear of my home.

In saying that, if someone is determined to set a car alight would double yellow lines really make any difference?
