    Now do the same working out how much that will save each pub per year, an industry where the margins are wafer thin...

    Are you going to be doing any moderation of RDS' post anytime soon? Or is it just me you seem arsed to do this with.

    We don't claim or pretend to fact check all posts, that's the responsibility of the poster. At this moment in time there appears to be an absence of factual background information re. the Southport murderer's background, with Home Secretary Yvette Cooper not really clarifying anything but saying:

    “The most important thing is to get justice for Bebe, Alice and Elsie and their heartbroken families, and all those affected by the attack and nobody should put that at risk.

    “The police and prosecutors have an important job to do in their investigation, pursuing every avenue and taking the action they need to ahead of the trial.

    “We must support them and ensure that everything possible is done to deliver justice.”


    Some outlets have interpretted the news that the murderer had a PDF of a notorious terrorist manual as indication that he was a "muslim terrorist" all along. I haven't seen any proof of that, nor any official denial of it either, so personally I am not inclined to start deleting speculation either way at this point.

    All that said, if there is in fact official information that this particular murderer wasn't either politically or religiously motivated then posts like the one you refer to will be deleted.

    The tweet that RDS linked at the top of his post is blatant disinformation stret. But hey ho I have been threatened with a CA ban twice for calling someone stupid and another person a Nazi, yet this guy can post this shite undeterred.

    Spineless and toothless is a bizarre take on a budget that will raise £40bn and has increased public spending by £70bn.

    I'm guessing she's one of the higher income people who are going to have to pay more?

    Pints are going to go up though due to the employers NI increase....

    The gov has banged up thousands of people for 'misinfo' when they're (the gov) is the primary source of misinfo! it's outrageous. Also wtf does Tommy Robinson got to do with any of this?

    Likely that new jobs will also reduce particularly for small business employers who will be unable to afford the extra expense of employers NI contributions :(

    What "Misinfo" have you detected?

    What evidence of a Muslim connection are you claiming is being hidden?

    We've already established that possession of an al Quaeda training manual is definitely NOT evidence of a Muslim connection.

    And the tweet remains, the moderation on this site is a total clown college.

    I should be careful though, might get threatened with a CA ban for using the word clown.

    And yet, in a point of the Chancellor's statement that has been remarkably overlooked amid a hysteria that one would be forgiven for thinking meant these measures were to be implemented next week, we are told that getting on for two million employers will either pay no National Insurance at all next year or no more than what they already do. I'm afraid I cannot help feeling that far too many of her critics are swallowing the continuing nonsense and dishonesty of the previous government and their creditless friends in the media.

    Nobody (including you) has reported a tweet with clarification of which rules it breaches yet you persist in going off topic to whine about something you don't care enough about to report :hmmm

    So you only moderate posts that have been reported? Were my posts that I was warned about reported by anybody? Have people been reporting posts in the movies I've just seen thread?

    Clowns.

    Bonus points: Rich accusing me of taking the thread off topic. In what way is RDS's insane conspiracy post on topic?

    If you want to challenge the claims made in a member's post, do it - challenge away.

    I'm not interested in making the moderation of a hobby site a full-time occupation, so if I or others in the team are going to fact-check it will be in the capacity of a user challenging another user, not in the capacity of moderator or admin.

    We will step in where we see people throwing insults at each other, but if someone is simply chatting shit I expect the wider community to have the gumption to call them out on it without expecting us to.
