Sir, – Seeing that US president Joe Biden (81) is adamant that he’s not quitting the stage, then I suggest, as a matter of urgency, he gets in touch with Willie Nelson (91), Sir Tom Jones (84), Bob Dylan (83), Diana Ross (80), and Sir Mick Jagger (80) to ask them for their expert tips on retaining old fans, attracting new fans, coming up with new material, and doing what’s needed to have audiences calling for an encore.
While he’s at it, he might also ask Vera Wang (75) to smarten up his wardrobe for him, Dame Judi Dench (89) to show him how best to talk to a camera or a live audience, Dolly Parton (78) to be his vice-presidential running mate – and, of course, Sir David Attenborough (98) about how to save the planet.
If Mr Biden wants to win, he needs to start acting his age – fast. – Yours, etc,
