Dear Ab Ed. Why do you continually allow certain users of AB to get away with ageist comments and insults?


Amongst these lately,. have been things like 'old people shouldn't be allowed in supermarkets', 'old people shouldn't be allowed to drive', 'have you taken your Complan yet?', 'I bet you smell of wee' etc.


You wouldn't allow any user to make comments about race or skin colour because you would say that was racism.


So why do you allow ageism?


I have no intention of registering a complaint against any individual, as I think it's about time you put this in terms of use, then it would cover everyone.


Your thoughts, Ed?
