33. Oh, give me a break. It's not on political grounds, broadly or otherwise.

It's on grounds of consistent trolling and adding nothing else to the group. For which said poster has had at least three posts hidden in the past few months, here, and on General Discussion when he tried it there.

If someone wants to post here criticizing Jeremy Corbyn, well, I think that's been done a number of times and it's grist for the mill.

Heading each post with a senseless jibe including "Corbynites" or somesuch (of which I don't think there are many here anyway) followed by cryptic body text that often makes little or no sense, then not engaging in any ensuing discussion, is pretty much a definition of trolling.

Is anyone up for asking admin to appoint a couple of us as hosts of the UK group? [View all] muriel_volestrangler Mar 2016 OP

I think it would be a good idea to have a host or two LeftishBrit Mar 2016 #1

I'd be quite happy. Bad Dog Mar 2016 #2

My attitude on that is Ghost Dog Mar 2016 #3

I make no concessions. Bad Dog Mar 2016 #4

It would take almost no time at all muriel_volestrangler Mar 2016 #5

Well, you have my vote. I can be available if needed, Ghost Dog Mar 2016 #12

I'd be happy with either or both of you taking on the role, among others. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #13

I'm OK with this if the concensus is to go for it. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #6

I don't know whether your comment was intended for me or for the whole thread, Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #8

I think the 'right wingers' comment may have referred to a time a few years ago when one of the mods LeftishBrit Mar 2016 #9

Yeah, like I said, I'm sanguine about the idea if a couple of people are willing to do it. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #10

Happy to support the idea though no ambitions to do it myself non sociopath skin Mar 2016 #11

I'm tentatively against this. Donald Ian Rankin Mar 2016 #14

Sure, no mad rush. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #22

Well, you and I have disagreed in the past, sometimes at some length, but it's always been civil. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #24

Rather awkward that you raised politics then. non sociopath skin Mar 2016 #26

Really? Donald Ian Rankin Mar 2016 #32

Oh, give me a break. It's not on political grounds, broadly or otherwise. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #33

Great - I think it's a good idea that people from various points on the political spectrum are hosts LeftishBrit Mar 2016 #27

I think it's healthy to have a balance for all sorts of reasons. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #29

Me to... Ironing Man Mar 2016 #30

For me, that's the bottom line. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #31

Happy to run with that. non sociopath skin Mar 2016 #25

I'm OK with that. Bad Dog Mar 2016 #28
