That's tough talking. Depends on who you think started the bitching in the first place. |
|
Other blogs, such as Slugger O'Toole, use the football analogy of playing the ball not the woman and give yellow and then red cards for persistent abuse. Recipients of red cards are then barred from commenting for something like three weeks and then pointedly welcomed back. Might be worth a try? |
|
There are very good reasons why I am happy to stand by my own comments but now reserve the right to censor those made by others - particularly when referring to third parties. |
|
I suspect it was the local torys who were the trouble makers. I was quite shocked at some of the comments made during the election campaign. At least this nasty bunch is out of the way for the next five years. |
|
Does Mr Sowerby personally know the 22,340 who voted for Caroline Nokes and does he classify them all as a 'nasty bunch'.I thought that our hostess was going to censor such things. |
|
Peter Sowerby. If there is anyone who is nasty, its you. It wouldn't be surprising if you worked out of the Liberal Campaign office or tore down the odd poster or two like you said you were going to. I'm probably going to get censored now. |
|
Wrong on all counts. I am a labour party member who voted tactically for the lib dems. |
|
Poor Mr Sowerby,he really does have this 'thing' about the 'Tory drinking club'.Has his application for membership of the Romsey Conservative Working Men's Club been blackballed in the past?Who knows.... |
|
I have photograph evidence that the yellow and red light bulbs on the Romseys conservative club christmas trees were switched for blue bulbs at christmas 2003. Come on tory boy deny it. |
|
** unfounded allegation - removed by SG **. Pity he wasn't accidentally nailed to a tree when posters were being put up. |
|
I have deleted this post because I don't think it is very nice to refer to anyone as a "fat tosser" unless there is specific proof provided..... |
|
as much as i wouldnt want negative comments on MY blog, i wouldnt consider censorship to save my pride. that's a lot cos where i'm from (singapore) they censor almost everything. |
|
I thought censorship was against one's own human rights. The liberals are so into human rights these days that indeed the Human Rights Act itself gives one the right to have the freedom of expression. Also, it gives the right for one to remain anonymous too. Sandra therefore can't have it both ways. |
|
Free speech does not include comments that are offensively directed at another person with no foundation. That is called libel. |
|
Calm down peeps. I have been forced to edit comments which referred to somebody by name. I have kept most of Mr Sowerby's comments and referrals to him as he is well able to answer for himself but have removed specific third party references. |
|
Oh god, it's the "Respect" word again, something that is all but lost in this country, not forgetting New Labour! I've just used God as a third party. Is that going to be censored too? |
|
I don't think God is likely to sue so you are alright and I don't think the comment is blasphemous either.. |
|
Maybe God has a lawyer called Cherie. |
|
At least you and your supporters didn't get your Constitution ratified. What have you got to say about that? |
|
Romsey Voter. Have you ever tried Hopi Ear Candles? I hear they're really calming..... |
|
Constitution - mine's quite healthy thanks.... |
|
Hopi Ear candles. Enlighten me on their calming properties. |
|
Using a linen candle, creating a vacuum which allows all the gunk to be evacuated from your ear, which allows you to hear more clearly in the first instance, and even after frequent uses can help with clearing all sinus passages. |
|
jessie, I think you need to get some help... |
|
Bless |
|
Never heard of him. I'm actually quite nice once you get to know me! |
|
Fundamental problem though. My bottom line is a stunning size 10, and very pert but it wouldn't want to get to know a Tory... |
|
Did I say that I was a Tory? Do you judge everyone by their political leanings over their looks and personalities? If you do then you lead a very shallow life. Think about it. |
|
Nope it's about core values for me, which are usually reflected in an individual's personality. |
|
At least you have a sense of humour, despite having a LibDem card. You could have a donor card to go with it if you haven't already got one. |
|
Oh yes I have a sense of humour. Being an LD voter laughter is frequently necssary. Apart from of course May 6 in Romsey where genuine smiles were all the rage for the yellow peril!!!! |
|
I thought laughter was hard to come by in any kind of politics. May 6th was nothing to get carried away with. Anyway, this site has lived on as a result and it's become a place to meet interesting people. No, I didn't answer the question. |
|
'No, I didn't answer the question.' |
|
Yes, I really do think you need help! |
