Rooting for blue-collar workers and giving them attention and care

With reference to The National editorial Recognition and support for UAE working class (April 21): thank you for this article.

I agree with the article. All those employees who are travelling and still working from office, site, field etc need special care and attention from the companies. They deserve our appreciation.

Silence the alarm: oil will climb back up, this slip is temporary
Regarding Jennifer Gnana's report What are negative oil prices and how do they impact markets? (April 21): this is temporary and will be back to normal by Wednesday when May prices are applicable. West Texas is a group of private producers and not a bench mark like Brent which is holding above 25 for now. The issue is investors who have no buyers and have no means to store the oil they have.

Appreciation for war veteran and "one-man fundraising machine"

About Simon Rushton and Jack Dutton's report Second World War veteran, 99, who raised £27m for UK health workers, continues his brush with fame (April 20): once a soldier always soldier. I am a proud son of a soldier.
