I have complained of the poster's words before - hence the phrase "as usual" - I am not the only one to have complained of this poster's posts. To suggest I hold a delusion about something is a personal attack on me - an ad hominem attack. My complaint is about the content of the post and not about the poster it cannot therefore be an ad hominem attack. Dan has requested that the poster desist in the past, occasionally where I have overstepped the boundary and been criticised for it I have apologised. I made a simple statement for the record - if people don't agree then they can say so or ignore it, don't throw mud at me for saying it. I will not be replying to any more deflective posts on this subject. If you believe my post is an ad hominem attack then take it up with...err. It seems clear that no-one wishes to address the elephant in the room - the exercise of unbridled absolute power by one person over others whether the intent is benign or not. The ability to exercise freedom of speech at the sole discretion of one person is after all a key aspect of media analysis and as such should fall into the remit of this site, imo of course.
