Died aged 75 after long battle against cancer.

Retro......attack the messenger, instead of attacking the problem, is always a fall back position for some people. I have many areas of interest, as you will see from my posts recently. If anyone has a one-track mind, its you, and others like you, who revel in making personal attacks on people like me, rather than deal with the problem.

All this reminds me of the outpouring of grief when it was announced that
"Sir" Jimmy Savile had died. He was lionised out of proportion in the media. He lay in state, in a gold-colored coffin and then buried in an inordinately ornate grave. His funeral was attended by a cast of thousands. Massed ranks of Celebrities formed an orderly queue in front of TV presenters, to wax lyrical about "this wonderful man" With all the fuss that was made at the time, anybody could have been forgiven for supposing that Mother Teresa or Princess Diana had died again.

But if I, or anybody else had started to spill the beans about this truly awful pervert, perhaps the worst paedophile in British history, they would have been shot down in flames and vilified by people like you. But who would now doubt the guilt of this serial child abuser ? Even his most eloquent supporters are now silent.

I shall continue to campaign on this issue, and any other issues I care to take an interest in, and people like will not stop me.

Publish and be damned.

Blackadder...you are referring to George Thomas, who was indeed a homesexual, and his alleged paedophile activities were investigated in the 1960's :::

Nowhere have I suggested that it is only the Tory Party that has Paedophiles in their ranks. Cyril Smith was a Member of the Labour Party and later the Liberal Party. As I have pointed out in many previous posts, paedophiles come from all walks of life and all political persuasions.

[ummmm]

Problem is, Mikey, that there is only so much you can say so it's just becoming repetitive.

[mikey4444]

Ummm...yes, you are correct but when I am attacked on AB, I usually think its best to defend myself, from the ignorant and ill-informed !

Although I think I may add a couple more names to my "ignore list"

[ummmm]

Do you ever forget who is on the list? :-)

There's been lots of personal insults in news the last few days.

[mikey4444]

Bit gnomic for me Ummmm ! What personal insults ?

I was right about Savile though, wasn't I !

[mikey4444]

Ah...now I see what you mean !

That "list" is quite small and isn't growing very quickly. I reserve places on it for the worst offenders only. People hide behind the anonymity of AB, so say things that they would never dream of saying to peoples faces.

///so say things that they would never dream of saying to peoples faces. ///

Want to bet?

[naomi24]

^ditto.

Mikey, your list is quite a source of merriment to me. I can't help thinking you'll eventually end up talking to yourself.

[ummmm]

I think Mikey should publish the list :-)

[naomi24]

Indeed, ummmm. As he often says, "Publish and be damned!" :o)

[Baldric]

Mikey, you tell me I'm on your ignore list

///People hide behind the anonymity of AB, so say things that they would never dream of saying to peoples faces///

I would not put money on that if I were you!

[-Talbot-]

They either hide behind the anonymity of AB or meet in pubs to talk about you!

[Zacs-Master]

if he admits that AB gives anonymity, why is he not publishing the list. A slightly 'gnomic' situation.

[-Talbot-]

I was right about Savile though, wasn't I !



Can you give more information regarding this statement, mikey.
I know I have had answers removed about what I have said about savile, but I don't remember you telling anyone.

[jno]

those who insist they'd say as much to others' faces could at least remove their anonymity on AB and try it...

[naomi24]

jno, now there’s a wonky way of looking at it! I see no faces!

[DTCwordfan]

Flash another pseudonym onto AB with its jelly-heads, mikey, and publish it.....we will know who it is but remain mumm ;-]

[ummmm]

I don't think anyone is abusive enough to worry about speaking in the same manner to someones face.

It's the abusive banned trolls that wouldn't dare.

[-Talbot-]

Nothing more annoying than trying to take credit for something you didn't do.


Unless you can shed some light on how you were right about savile...........mikey?
