Well should repetition be banned on EDF? Should it be banned on EDF?


If we've already had a thread before, should it be disallowed?

What about threads saying "Recommendation for a builder wanted"? Should that be banned because it has appeared before?


Betcha fiver this get's lounged....

No, it's been moved to the "About The Forum" section, because it's a question about the forum.


Since it was my comments that started this I thought I'd respond, although I'd like to make it absolutely clear I'm not involved in the running of the forum, I'm just a user like anyone else.


All I posted was a friendly and polite suggestion that it might be better to add to existing threads than start new ones to prevent the forum getting repetitive. It wasn't bullying or dictating it was my opinion as a user of the forum and I don't really see what the problem was with me posting it and why it's got you so upset. As for your TV analogy - if you don't like the show change channel - what if every channel is showing a repeat of a sit-com that wasn't that funny the first time around?


I really don't know why this has got you so wound up, or if it's just me that you're not keen on, I wasn't trying to assert any kind of authority over anyone I was just saying what I thought.

I totally sympathise annaj, I've just had to do the same in the lounge, they even had the same blimmin title...on the same page...!!!

But not everyone has worn slippers has worn (in both sense) slippers here for three years, so i have sympathy when people don't realise.

Mind you I can't think of a more pleasant not polite, nor generally all round person I'd like to be told off by than you.


Except maybe citizen....or quids, if he had a gin & tonic.

    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.
