IT IS sickening that serial killer Levi Bellfield has received an early invitation to get a lifesaving Covid jab.
This monster was caged after brutally taking the lives of schoolgirl Milly Dowler and at least two other women.

So for him to be given the chance to take priority over the law-abiding population still waiting for the vaccine is astonishing.
With infection rates still high and concerns over jab supplies increasing, every vial is precious.
Millions of our elderly and vulnerable are still anxiously waiting for their first jab, as are many heroic doctors and nurses.
Frontline workers who keep the nation running and teachers who are vital for our children’s future must also be fast-tracked.
Fiends such as Bellfield surely forfeited their rights to the usual benefits of society when they carried out their wicked acts.
Prison health chiefs must come to their senses and put these beasts where they belong.
At the back of a very long queue.
Put Hound on ice
DANCING on Ice contestant Rufus Hound’s attack on the Government’s free school meals scheme last week was completely ill-judged for a family show.
But, let us not forget, it was not the so-called comedian’s first attack on the Conservatives.
At the time of the Manchester Arena bombing, he posted vile tweets suggesting the terrorist attack — which left 22 dead, including children — could have been orchestrated by Theresa May to help the Tories win the election.
Hound — needless to say a Jeremy Corbyn supporter — was eventually forced to back down.
But why did ITV think this delusional motormouth was suitable to star on a primetime family favourite?
MP Alec Shelbrooke rightly said that if such a comment was made on a news broadcast, it might breach Ofcom rules.
Hound is currently off the show, self-isolating after a Covid alert.
ITV bosses should not invite him back.
