I think most of the rancour comes from the OT politics stuff. Entrenched views, fixed opinions and always ends up with insults. Has anyone ever changed their minds after a twenty page dirge on Liz Truss or whatever.
I'm not into banning anyone, sometimes it has to happen for the greater good. Fair play to Swale, he doesn't do it lightly and always gives posters enough role to hang themselves with.
