But the free speech champions on the right have to accept it both ways.

And the left and centre leaning don't get banned on here; they just get bullied, belittled and hounded off instead.

Bullied and 'hounded off' are just loser excuses.....Belittled, yeah, I and others belittle bad arguments.

Sure, there is some knockabout, but it's rarely one way.

Political forums require resilience......I'm not sure what else you expect.

Does a month long flounce for getting a yellow card fall into this category?

Hardly, that was a sulk with my own side.

I don't know how to put it politely so I'll just come straight out and say that you're a lying *******

I would guess that no more than one post every six months gets deleted and if that is your definition of "all the time" then you're a terrible accountant and should be disbarred

To add to Midland's response - the only posts in discussions that ever get deleted are those containing either foul languaged abuse directed at another member, or comments likely to bring the site into disrepute in other mediums or with potential repercussions for the site owners.

I find Wisbech Eagle entertaining. I disagree with most of what he says but he, at least, seems to believe it. His air of superiority reminds me of Basil Fawlty - completely out of place, yet almost endearing.

You're a good natured chap.

Perhaps I should try to let things go.

At the opening of Parliament yesterday two very contrasting leaders. Boris looked like the cat who got the cream whilst Corbyn was sucking on a lemon.

I know its hard when you have just been beaten to put on a brave face but Corbyn showed yesterday just what a graceless individual he really is. He couldn't bring himself to speak to Boris or even look at him.

Plenty of opposition leaders have been through that mill and had the decency to realise that this is a ceremonial and state occasion and that they had a symbolical role to play representing their party and the country.

Bad Grandpa.

Make your mind up as there is a huge difference between deleting one of your posts and deleting your posts all the time which is what you originally said

It has certainly happened on more than one occasion. For seemingly no reason other than showing you up.

Others have noticed it too.

It seems to be a standard response from someone who knows that he's on shaky ground to try and pretend that others agree with him rather like the bloke that had a moan at me by PM last week claiming that he had PMs from other people agreeing with him.

It fools no-one

This is more like it.

Petty arguments over insignificant events.....it gladdens my heart.

It's almost worth roasting some chestnuts.....all is well.
