YOUR SAY: Reader's letter
David MitchellI WAS abolutely furious to read how law-abiding taxpayers are paying for James Bulger's killers to go on holiday, not to mention the spiralling.costs of giving the evil pair new identities and lives.
I'm not surprised that Australia and Canada refused to take them - can you imagine the outcry if our country offered to take other countries' vilest criminals?
The usual liberal hand-wringing do-gooders will keep bleating on behalf of Jon Venables and Robert Thompson, caiming they deserve a second chance - but poor James Bulger didn't get such a chance to grow up and enjoy his life.
