As an example say and again no reflections on anyone; I posted the death threat at you as stannaccywiz you complain and are told to deal with it and sent a note from say missusjaywalker who as far as you know has no connection at all with stannaccywiz so you ask and your question is ignored.
I did contact the police. Then I went on asking and was threatened with dismissal for keep asking so when later I asked about another topic; one that should have been something that charity should have been concerned about they ignored those emails; so I emailed again to more than one person; then I asked the web editor; then I posted on the boards. What more could I do? I did what I thought could help; I asked an M P who I thought would not be as ignored as I had.
This was a site for carers; I am a carer and that site showed not one scrap of concern as to how a death threat could have effected me. They had no idea what the state of my mental heath was; I could have been a depressive and a death threat the final straw that drove me over the edge into death.
So if you don’t know carers have one of the highest incidents of depression there is and as such that should have been in the minds of that charity and a death threat dealt with in a different way than saying “get over it; here’s a note from me granny”.

I think Neil made a quite valid reply to your original post Webglynn, any death threat should be reported to the police, and I talk from experience. I can't really see what you hoped to achieve in contacting Greg on this issue as with every will in the world I don't think that any member of parliament would be able to help with this kind of problem, it was definitely a police matter
