Nah. I like seeing the libs tie themselves in knots with their mental gymnastics.

A like/dislike button might help to highlight to some of the more extreme posters that they do not actually share the same views as the majority of others

I’m not sure what the problem is.

Nobody’s forced to go in there and/or read anybody else’s posts.

We all like to see you tie yourself in a knot with mental sitting still.

I have my own ideas around where NPE breaks down but perhaps leaping to ‘improvements’ it might be worth providing your own diagnosis of the issue: let’s call it a manifesto for change…

Off you go.

Most of the contributors in NP&E would be in tears after five minutes with nothing to do biggrin

The most offensive part of this post is the Americanism.

Agreed.

It’s a discussion forum. A forum for discussion if you will.

I don’t post much in NPE but I do read quite a bit (especially bykers contributions to the trumpet thread) and skip over much of the squabbling.

I never go near the Brexit threads. It’s not a difficult tightrope to walk.

2/10 for your debating skills, you haven't told us how this will improve things.

I think it should come with a health warning which pops up everytime you go to submit a post.

An investigation into users who all seem to post the same "on message" posts in topics and yet post nowhere else in PH nor seem to have any cars or other interests would be good.

Very visible in Brexit, climate change and labour threads, also anything to do with immigration or the economy, the same posters turn up and take over with the "party line" statements. Often failing to discuss or debate just simply sealion the hell out of the topic.

So yeah, id like to investigate if they are actually individuals or a shared set of usernames from project whitewash.
