Call off the dogs Corbyn

OMG are we now thinking there is some planned operation to silence threads on GN. Paranoia is setting in. Who on earth has the time to do that? And who would be bothered to do it? A case of over estimating your own importance I think.

Well played trisher,

Yes lemon and the same would happen again, it’s planned in my opinion.

MaizieD Pearlclutchers!!! Wish I'd thought of that. As it is I can't help thinking that somehow there's a hole in time and some of the posters on here have stepped through it.
But lemon a lot of the comments also refer to GD1943 being a man and posting comments to grannies. So there is a sexist element to this.
And yes I can see lots of people finding this hilarious and wondering where some of you live such sheltered lives.

If it’s brought to an end Annie we can start another one.

It would carry more weight if those calling us ‘pearl clutchers’ and agreeing with Grandad43 were not actually very left wing but as it is, it’s just a few agreeing with him because of political views, what sheep.
His ultimate threat is saying he shows ‘the office’ our comments ( wow, we are all scared by that one!Not.)
Our comments ( those of us who don’t like his language) are not sexist....not at all, we would feel the same had trisher or Maizie or anyone else had used it.

niggly, all done to bring the thread to an end.

Exactly annie, F'ing and blinding is bad enough and quite unnecessary, but calling people, any people, by lavatory names is going far too far and plain disgusting!

No Maizie, we just have moral standards, sadly missing in some.

best to ignore, we are disagreeing with someone who called the deaths of 144 people ‘ an event’

Goodness. All you pearl clutchers must live such sheltered lives

Grandad, what baffles me is why you seem to think that any of us are even remotely concerned that you choose to use comments on these threads as some sort of butt for your office jokes even making it sound like some sort of threat, which is actually quite sad?! However, If it pleases you and makes you feel superior then carry right on because, do you know, bearing in mind that in the real world very few of us know each other or anything about each other on a personal level, I doubt anyone on here gives it a second thought.

Seems equality means women need to lower their moral standards .

The gutter is not the place for me.

Not worth bothering with. It’s how Momentum work.

This is just a taster of what chuka Umunna was referring to when he said ‘ call off the dogs’

This is the Corbyn/Momentum Party

Because i am a grandparent. That would be "just ordinary logic to most people.

Does it feed his innate sense of Male superiority I wonder?
And even “the office” must wonder what a 70 year old man is doing spending his spare time on a grandparents’ website.

Mission accomplished

Oh, such indignity over a sentence (or part sentence) used on this forum by myself which does not even breach the rules. However, two days previous to my words the member "mawbroon" used the F*** word to which there was not one solitary complaint posted in the thread.

Mawbroon tried to justify that when challenged by myself by stating that she was responding to another member "in kind". So, two wrongs make a right.....do they.

I believe what we have witnessed over the last few days on this forum is not indignity in regard to what I have stated, but out and out sexism by a number of forum members, and it is as simple as that.

In the office again today, but do keep the comments and false indignity coming in as it amuses us all in coffee breaks etc. Staff believe it is far better than anything witnessed on Facebook or Twitter and a great advertisement for the forum.

Many thanks.

So sad lemon that there are still women who can't counter. a man's arguments.
When a man resorts to the language not even of the gutter but the sewers, then he has lost any argument.

I am surprised trisher, that you would attempt to defend this as I have never heard you resort to this yourself and, quite frankly I'm saddened that you think this poster's language is acceptable.

I admit I liked this , not use to the hustings is he

Seems you agree with all he says.......because he agrees with all you say.If that is a ‘man’s arguements’ then God help us all. You are on your own I think with this one trisher and you are very welcome to him.

Oh dear, I just don’t go do I?
Equality for me Trisher works both ways, it does not mean that I have to lower myself to that sort of level.
If my argument is weak, I am under no illusions about resorting to the language of the gutter or scatological insults. It does not give the argument more validity.
I used to be a secondary teacher and am well used to hearing words I would not choose to employ myself. I could excuse them because those responsible , usually in the bottom sets (!) were not always the brightest or most articulate and their vocabulary was consequently limited.
“By their words shall ye know them “ to paraphrase a well known saying.
Or indeed the Old Wykehamist motto
“Manners makyth man”

Sorry Trisher, comparing children with an adult Male realy is rather a pathetic attempt to defend your closest ally
