I'd say 99% of people on here wouldn't know my real name, and why should they?
Does it diminish someone's posts if we don't know their full name, age, date of birth, addrees and National Insurance number?
I say a resounding no.

Hard to put into words, really, but I always pay more regard to those who put their names to letters in newspapers than to those who sign themselves "anon". Perhaps it doesn't matter for a lot of general stuff on here, but when it comes to local politics and especially as this person seems to occupy some sort of position in the political hierarchy, I reckon he should come out and declare his interests.
