Madam, - The Minister for the Marine, Dermot Ahern, wants the EU to "get tough" and banish toxic American "ghost ships" from travelling to Britain (The Irish Times, November 6th).
Why, then, does our Government allow lethal US military cargo to land in Shannon and overfly Ireland regularly, thereby exposing us all to considerable dangers? - Yours, etc.,
COLM RODDY, Bayside Walk, Dublin 13.
