(There we go this should be the end of the thread, the mods can close it now, because I have played the Godwin's Law card).


Quote:
Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies, sometimes also known as Godwin's Law, is a theory put forward by Mike Godwin in 1990. Godwin noticed that long-threaded discussions on the Internet tended to turn into mud slinging competitions by the end. The longer a thread got, the more likely it was that a Nazi comparison would be dragged into the discussion. Godwin's Rule states that: “As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.”
Please place end of thread post below.

Have asked Mick. You're right. Roy made the rule. I don't agree with it (but will enforce it from now on) 'cause I don't see the point in not allowing it if it's consenting 'cause I guess Jaysay could just rewrite the same thing out. Anyway I was wrong but garinda isn't going to get punished for my mistake.

He might not be knocking on people's doors, whilst Corrie's on the box, and since being declared the offical party candidate, but it looks as if he's using his time industriously, to get his message across to the electorate of Hyndburn.

Tory run Hyndburn Council has a gritter parked up @ Willows Ln depo 4 over two weeks as Tory run Lancashire CC refused to supply grit to it

I think my mum misunderstood what I told her. I told her I hadn't seen the message from Jaysay and made a point that it was amusing garinda thought it was real, as if it was real, Jaysay would have sent me a second copy with a 'crap I sent this to Garinda again', but I never recieved such a message. She must have thought that meant I didn't know what was in it.

Only got a message telling me the content was that Tories had not selected yet and not to tell accyweb. The one you obviously were told about today by Jaysay.

Rules are rules, and thank you for your graceful apology.

I suppose he sent you a pm explaining the previous message he sent me by mistake, in which he said your actions would leave Cllr. Britcliffe in the doo-doo, was also a bluff?

I know what I believe, and sadly it isn't yourself or Jaysay, and as MargaretR said, either way, in a dirty tricks campaign, only one side comes out smelling of a foul stench...and it isn't me.

You are well aware the first message was a mistake by Jaysay.

It's laughable that you're still convinced that Jaysay sent the one mentioned in this thread by mistake though. Read the message again, why would Jaysay send me that? Engage brain.

They are wrong on several things in my opinion. Have said so on this very site.

Yes, you have, but you also show the potential of voting out of loyalty to a party rather than for what is good for a community, (as have many supporters of the other parties).
