I am so sorry to discover that I have actually checked out Larry Elliott’s last column as business economics editor (From Thatcher to Trump and Brexit: my seven lessons learned after 28 years as Guardian economics editor, 10 November). I have actually constantly depended on him for descriptions of the dirty globe of business economics that are clear, succinct and clarify the context. My understanding of business economics has actually constantly been unstable, however Larry’s posts have actually provided me fairly a couple of lightbulb minutes. I will prize the last column.

• Francesca Segal provides us an important listing of stories that bring relief instead of providing the globe’s concerns (‘It will renew your faith in humanity’: books to bring comfort in dark times, 9 November). I might have made with a few of these titles when I was recuperating from a major disease. I would certainly include Sarah Winman’s Still Life to the listing.

• May I differ with the insurance claim that “crocodiles do not infest rivers … They just live there” (Letters, 10 November)? When crocodiles populate a river in numbers huge sufficient to create ecological troubles, “crocodile-infested” is a precise summary.

• I was amazed that the remedy to last Friday’s Wordsearch– words regarding running– did not consist of words “bore”, although it remained in the grid. And yes, I am a jogger.

• It unwell comes to be a body politic that unreasonably elected Brexit to sneer at the United States body politic for acting in a comparable fashion.
