[Politics] Brighton & Hove City Council Elections- 2023 Edition

[Bozza]

Making unfounded accusations should result in an automaitc ban or at the very least a grovelling apology ..

Agreed. So should we ban you or are you going to apologise?

 

[ManOfSussex]

It seems that anti-muslim and disabled jokes are still enough to get you elected in Westdene though.

As if I didn't already despair of the electorate of this country, just when you think they couldn't get more stupid, bigoted and insular, they pull one out of the hat yet again

Refer to him as Ivan The Terrible perhaps?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Lib Dems cant be happy about that. is Green the new protest vote?

There’s a big local issue with Eton wanting to build a village between Chailey and Plumpton. Obviously many are opposed, so the Greens are focused on that.
I’m not sure but I think the Tories in central government passed a bill to able to override local planning permissions. It was a prelude to their Greeports/Charter Zones, which ride roughshod over greenbelt.

I have no connection to @Steve Foster account and can categorically/legally state we have never met and have no idea who he is ... over to you.

I didn’t accuse you, but if the cap fits.

I was thinking back to a previous poster who had several usernames such a Paul Valley.

Best keep well clear TB .. a moderator has made an unfounded allegation/ mistake and the owner of this site is trying to dig a bit deeper. Barking mad in my view .. I thought my comment was relatively
uncontroversial ..

He's not your Dad then either? You both seem such nice blokes too.

I'm not where the Tories go from here. When you pick so many fights it will come back to haunt you.

Just a point, on what basis are you legally stating ?

I'm struggling to see what this has to do with the law. Unless you view alleged associations as defamatory in which case it's time to open the popcorn.

I'm quite old fashioned and believe when accused of something the truth matters ... happy to prove it in any way, including legally if neccasery

It's a bit like accusing someone of being 'Palace' when they aren't. Not defamatory, but annoying.

Actually, that's not the best example

What legal route would you take ?

In this case though it's just a sad twat being accused of being a sad twat.

Congratulations to Labour who have done incredibly well in Brighton & Hove. It has been a bad day for the Greens & the Conservatives, however, from a personal perspective I am delighted that I have been given the honour & privilege to represent the residents of Westdene & Hove Park for the Conservatives.

You see that Stanley character?



That’s you, that is.

As the owner of the site and the moderators are all about fairness and truth, legality was never going to be a real issue .. an apology would still be nice though.

I think what you are trying to say is, I need a hug.

It's okay.

Nope, I believe in truth and accountabilty. You are either fine with a moderator backed up by the site owner making untrue accusations about members on this forum or you are not.

Once again I have no idea why my initial tame comments have provoked such a hilarious response

Back on subject a big well done to Bella Sankey, our new Leader of the council, a bright forward thinking Cllr who is prepared to listen to the residents, after the United game and now this result it’s been a great few days and a quick humble piece of advice to @Steve Foster aka Cllr Lyons, if I were you I’d leave NSC alone for the next 4 years, you never know you might actually feel better for it

But then we'd miss out on all his fat muslim jokes.

Sorry I didn’t see your earlier posts on this matter; I was asleep.

I thought I had seen you post as Steve Foster before. Having checked your posting history, I can see that I was mistaken - that was a different poster. Accordingly, I apologise for posting that I believed you were Steve Foster.
