You may be in luck, I move to my new house next week. (new for me that
is, even the agent description had to admit "the house does now require
some modernisation and refurbishment ".)

Yes: I note that several people are now not even bothering with "OT:".
Perhaps we should start using "OT:" to signify a DIT question. :-/

Patently not true Harry and you ****ing know it. Trying to make out that
everyone is posting OT crap just to justify your own newsgroup wrecking
behaviour just doesn't wash.

Kindly get the **** out of this group and start your own when you can share
fantasies with other like-minded *******.

Still see the ensuing threads... but it is an improvement in the landscape.

*Except*, Dave's observation was a reflection on how much political bs
was (still) going on in this d-i-y newsgroup, so it was very much on
topic for this *newsgroup*, *especially* by today's standards.

As has been mentioned elsewhere, if you want to talk politics, why
*wouldn't* you want to do so somewhere more appropriate?

subject, as well as certain individuals.

It's not the way 'they' work, though. The idea is to spread their brand of
bile and politics as far and wide as possible. And to call anyone who
challenges them a **** or whatever.

The amusing thing is that they actually represent a tiny part of the
population. EU excepted.

That's the great thing about individual freedom. If this newsgroup was
in the EU, you wouldn't be allowed to do that.

Either brexit posts would be removed, or you would be forced to read them.

Its called 'harmonisation'

Just ignore the things you are not interested in is what I tend to do. This
thread seems to have no subject.
