This is crap. Separating news from politics is a bit silly.
aye. Suggested this yesterday mods are allegedly monitoring and will merge if necessary, personally i think it is stupid to keep the two separate, no need whatsoever imho.
My opinion for what it is worth is that there are now too many forums split from the Pie and piston, there should be an amalgamation of the new forums into 4 or 5, such as politics/news/entertainment/films/tv and such, like for like.
