Kurdish forces need our support

Hilary Benn (Report, 29 September) is right to oppose British boots on the ground in Syria. But we should be insistent that the UK now officially recognises the actual boots on the ground, the Syrian Kurdish YPG and YPJ, which have been so courageously fighting Isis for the last few years (almost alone), and that we provide them with the modern armour they so urgently need to defend themselves and clear Syria of these barbaric terrorists. The lack of support to them is incomprehensible.
