It has been announced that campaigning for the Election has been suspended, at least for today.

I would like to suggest that we do the same here on AB.

I have dedicated my thread to the victims, families of all involved, also to the wonderful people of Manchester in the way they are reacting.

Yes, Well done Boaty.
Who's campaigning?
Mikey..you will never stop the sop box here !
I don't see why, this is a news discussion forum and the election posts are no less newsy.

I'm glad the parties are doing it though.

Minty....I'm afraid you are right !
or soap !

Minty...I quite liked sop !
It's not going to help victims of Manchester nor prevent further tragedies. I can see political parties wanting to be seen showing respect but I don't see what limiting debate here achieves.

Just a suggestion OG....
OG, neither do I. I can understand the politicians who are in the public eye suspending their antics for a day though.
I know you meant well Mickey but I think for the most part we all need to carry on as normal.

Part of the Terrorists aim is to disrupt and prevent people doing the things they would normally do.

So, for my part, I think we should carry on as normal.
I'll not raise any political threads but terrorists win if we disrupt ourselves because of their activities.
I'm with ymb and TTT on this. I'm saddened by the news from Manchester but life -- and politics -- shouldn't stop on their account.
well I will kick it off
Corbo is gonna have a problem innit?
he refused to condemn the IRA terroristen
and so he should logically ( haha note logic used in connection with a politician) do the same for er our Muslim freedom fighting brothers

( irony alert just in case someone asks if the last bit was serious)
But Pierre, they have no need to fight for freedom if they've rocked up in the UK, they've escaped the lunacy of the motherland and made it to the land of milk and honey.

I'd would like to suggest that we suspend immigration to this country. It may just save the lives of young girls
//suspend campaigning?//

it would appear some in the labour party don't agree....

what is being implied here - that the government are more involved than is being admitted?
