EVERY day I see cyclists running red lights, cycling up the inside of stationary cars and cycling on pavements to avoid traffic jams.

They stay in the middle of the road, forcing cars to overtake on the wrong side yet the motorist are always being targeted.

Make them pay road tax and have identification plates so that the motorist can report them.

We get fined going through a red light why should they get away with it?

AN elderly man had an unfortunate, accidental trip on the pavement on Crow Road and gave himself a bad facial injury.

Both myself, another woman, a trained first aider from a local pizza delivery driver, and a lovely female doctor from the Queen Elizabeth University hospital all stopped to give first aid.

It meant he was in great hands until the ambulance arrived.

Better still it makes me proud to live in Partick, and humbled to help our nurses and paramedics, our heroes of the NHS.

Here's hoping the elderly gentleman, Alex, makes a full recovery.

Who, in our tax and legal systems, thought it was a good idea that a husband could put all his assets into his wife’s name thus avoiding any creditor or tax man getting their hands on the dosh or assets.

Take Sir Philip Green whose wife, an unemployed tax exile, lives in Monaco and is in the process of buying a new third yacht and a matching helicopter.

Surely, this is yet another legal tax evasion loophole that should be looked into and abolished ASAP if only to give some satisfaction to the BHS workers whose future and pension fund has been stolen from them.

I AM surprised that Melissa Reid (Evening Times June 23) will not have a criminal record in this country.

However the publicity surrounding her will ensure that her past will be with her always.

She put herself in a very unfortunate position and at the very beginning of her adult life.

I hope that she forgives herself for what she done, and that others will give her the chance to atone.

It would be a tragedy to destroy her life over what may have been a single impetuous act.
