The Truth Behind Traingate

Then Jen really should stop doing it whitewave , perhaps you should advise her

trisher

The majority of voters are happy to support the Labour Party if there is an election this week.
You Gov have Labour in a 6 point lead.

Niggly, you are getting two train journeys mixed up. You haven't got it straight yet, have you? Never mind.
Another 400+ posts and you might have got it - not that you want to, of course.

suggesting /accusing people of being something they clearly aren't is illegal.

Are you sure ww? I've had all sorts of weird shit written about me on these threads. Shall I phone the police?

There are 2 journeys being discussed niggly do try to keep up.

I'm pleased for the clarification Annie

Being communist isn't illegal annie but suggesting /accusing people of being something they clearly aren't is illegal.

No fear of anyone with communist beliefs being kicked out of the Labour Party now

I suppose if you are changing the meaning of communist, as Annie seems to do then I am probably classed as one- Annie's definition being of communist being anyone with what she considers far left views. If that is the case I am perfectly prepared to accept being called one as long as she admits her own political views are only slightly to the left of Attila the Hun. And are in fact Conservative

Nevertheless, to suggest that posters are communists but failing to either come up with evidence of posts or individuals to my mind entirely negates the argument.

Not at all libellous whitewave, having communist beliefs is not illegal , you seem to believe it is, how strange

It can get a Labour party member kicked out of the Labour party, so yes it is.

So lets get this straight! J.C DID reserve a seat, but someone else was sitting in it. He didn't want to ask that person to move, so sat in another reserved seat, and was asked to move by the rightful owner of the seat, which he did, and ended up with no seat, sitting on the floor. I thought that his party didn't pre book their seats, but it now turns out that they did?!! This tale changes with the telling!!
dj, no one has been unpleasant about your son and dil, just pointed out that their action was their choice, and not the fault of the train company. You do have a tendency to bring your family into conversations, therefore you cannot be surprised if by doing so you provoke a reaction, favourable or otherwise.

In the way it being used in a pejorative way - the answer to your question * primrose* is yes.

Is communism so bad in your opinion that saying someone is a communist is libellous?

Let me repeat for those who might believe your assertion that there are communist granneters and posts - there isn't a single post on gransnet that I have ever seen nor are aware that there is a single poster that can be classed as a communist.

To continue to assert that there is without giving supporting evidence is in my view libellous.

Those few others being the ones you suspect of being communists?

Did you know that wolf in sheep's clothing is the symbol of the Fabian Society?
I've often wondered why.

I rather connect it with Tories pretending to be socialists.

Not true whitewave, I gave you my reason, I don't trust you

That's because there aren't any - you would be happy to identify them otherwise.

Whitewave, I have no intention of doing so, I have learned not to trust you and a few others .

Not true, Chewbacca, but never mind, you believe what you want to believe.

chewbacca shame on you

Attacking my son and his wife for not turfing 70 year olds out of their reserved seats

what a load of cobblers! It was you, durham who decided to bring your family again I to this discussion, no one else. You even got compliments on how nicely you'd brought them up. And in return, you quoted a completely fabricated survey that showed that you wanted me to be thrown under a train. Your passive aggressive traits are getting worse. You need help.

So do I annie and would be grateful if you could point me to those communists posts as I've clearly missed them so far.

Thank you for your help

How does one poster state with confidence - none of us are communists ?

I have no idea which party a poster belongs to but I know communist beliefs when I read them.
