A politics no-go zone?

Ah the moon lol.

Perfectly possible for those who do not wish to talk politics tomorrow- to keep away from political threads - and enjoy the peace and quiet- if that is what they wish for.

Enjoy.

Why can't you just not read the politics threads?

Because there are so many. They have taken over all of GN and most of them state the same thing over and over and over again. I’m with you maw although if it were so, it would be the lull before the storm on Friday.

I was thinking the exact same thing last night MawB!
And I will continue to (mostly) ignore the politics thread - it's going to get nastier on Friday - but I do understand why your post is on the news & politics thread.

Doodle- it does not matter how many there are- your prerogative is to just ignore them. Simple, really.

Wishing for the moon Maw

Maw If you look up, you'll see a flock of pink 'birds' flying overhead all going 'Oink oink' !

I agree Maw. The political threads are so predictable that they're not worth reading. Just people letting off steam and agreeing with those who think exactly like them and disparaging those who don't. Boring and pointless.

why on earth do you read them then? Don't bother- peace.

What Jane said!

It’s been quite an eye opener but has become really tedious.

It's surprising the number of people on GN who complain about the political threads and yet have time to read them. The simple answer is - don't.

I can't see there being much to talk about tomorrow. It'll be like a day in limbo.

But I'd agree, no-one is forcing anyone to read the N & P forum, so those who aren't interested, don't bother...

This is probably the most important election that's happened in my lifetime so why would I want to ignore it? There's nothing to stop anyone ignoring social media/tv/radio etc for a couple of days. And good that those of us that are interested have people to discuss it with.

I’m going to keep it zipped tomorrow Maw!
?

I want to put my fingers in my ears and scream to be honest ?

But Maw this really is the biggest, most important vote for donkeys years. Of course GN will be overrun with political threads.

Just have a holiday for a couple 9f days?

It is an important day, it's our 49th wedding anniversary and it's been totally overshadowed by this debacle!

I agree Maw

MN has a feature which allows you to hide entire threads you don’t want to see but it’s not available on GN for some reason

I agree Maw the problem is if one does not want politics or games there is very little else.

Really? I doubt there will be much chat and you can avoid it. What's the matter with you that you need such rules. I am staggered that you didn't know the media couldn't talk about it.

No one needs to read threads they are not interested in.

If we have a day off tomorrow I bet Friday will be buzzing!
?

It could be very, very quiet UG, while we all process what has happened, although I have to admit it is unlikely.

Why not use the Hide this Discussion option if you choose to behave like an ostrich?
Wish I could switch off bloody BJ as easily!

We don't have one, do we mcem? It would be lovely so I hope I'm wrong.
