Contrasting Greens | Doctors' strike | Pointless prefixes | A rare actress | Politician-kissing babyCongratulations on your editorial finesse. Page 4 of last Friday's Guardian had photos of two Greens. One was a knighted establishment figure who sold a high street chain store after taking out millions of pounds in dividends, leaving a massive pensions hole in a firm that has now collapsed, putting 11,000 jobs at risk. The other is an elected member of parliament. Only one of these Greens has been spied on by the police. Is this what is meant by a democratic deficit?

" If the junior doctors' strike is today's miners' strike (Report, 26 April) then lessons can be learned from the past. The miners lost thanks to lack of support from the trade unions; this must not be allowed to happen again. The unions must now fully get behind the junior doctors and threaten industrial action on a mass scale. The Tories view the NHS and its staff as commodities to be sold off. If the junior doctors lose, we'll be one step further to losing our NHS for good.
