Its been doing the rounds on twitter for years. Its a good example of how insulated echo chambers are from negative feedback on their champions. How this man maintains a following of self declared liberals given his history is a mystery. Its also a mystery because he’s one of the lamest dudes on twitter, the type who uses ’wacky’ compound insults like w*nkpuffin, but the fbpe mob seem to lap that up for some reason.

Ditto supertanskiii and her antisemitism.

Or maybe its fine because these antisemites and misogynists are on the ’right side’ politically. Like Neil Coyle or Steve Reed.

ok.

I think the point of his post was the Sunak swimming pool story...but well done for the investigating anyway.

Bit worried you might have some dirt on me now.

i see the Scottish govt has picked another fight with Westminster, to mine a bit more grievance. they're either picking these fights deliberately, or they're too stupid to understand devolution (so ask yourself: how well do they understand indie?)

Well back from an utterly ridiculous ban for simply having an opinion a certain woke admin does not like.

This the ban reason:

Repeated trolling, celebrating homophobia, transphobia

What an absolute crock of fucking shit.  Zero posts from me celebrating either homophobia or transphobia and no one will be able to find a post saying otherwise.    Trolling is just said when someone doesn't like your opinion and can't handle it.

Debate is being shut down here and its really sad.  It seems only opinions allowed are the woke left ones.  Utter bollocks.  

Moderation here has become a joke.  Left wing woke warriors in charge of the board now.  Very sad.  And I know this will bring utter delight to Ozzane and Stevie the c**t but that just shows how wrong it is.

I have heard more diverse debate at Glastonbury over the last two weeks than here. 

Serious suggestion. If you’re not keen on how its run, you could find somewhere else?

I’m sure there are plenty of other platforms, forums, groups discussing politics who would welcome your flavour of commentary?

Linekar is back. Great win for the wokerati.

I totally agree.  but this "change" is very recent.  We have been debating shit on here for a very long time.  15 years or so...  @Ozanne @steviewevie spamming the site like do and the over bearing moderation from @kaosmark2 are all new things.  This place was never so sensitive to shut down opinions like what is happening now.

Maybe it could just stop and we could back to having debates ? 

Or maybe not and you are right and posting is pointless unless you are a leftie with leftie opinions. 

I just would hope it wouldn't be too much to ask if we have moderation its fair and balanced.  It clearly isn't.

no recent change, kaos has been a mod her for ages, you've recently returned after a long absence

Nice one Gaz. I expect it was me going to that protest on saturday that did it. Not sure I agree with his last tweet though.

[steviewevie]

Sad for John Redwood though.

i'm having my day filmed tomorrow, by some students, for a promo for the charity I'm involved with.(thankfully I've had a haircut and beard trim, so i don't look too shocking!).

they've just asked if they can film me on an extra day this week, but I'm too busy to fit them in.

its not debate being shut down, its the sort of drivel you've just posted that needs shutting down, where you don't think that you need to offer reasonable standards of behaviour,
