Is there any chance we can have a Brexit-free zone, where all talk of Brexit (and that means from Remainers too)? I'm sure I'm not the only one sick to the back teeth of all the chest beating, name calling, one-upmanship and whining (he says whinily) from all sides. We need salvation! Help us Ed, you're our only hope.

//what do you want to do ban anything doing with the news headlines?//

Banning is a little extreme. Deletion is fine.

......and perhaps there ought to be a section for those who take everything they read completely seriously......

No one is forced to read political threads. Or anything else for that matter. It's a nonsense to want an xxxx free zone.

[TonyV]

jth all depends on what news channels you read online or what newspapers you read.

[ummmm]

OG - I think it's more the point of politics slipping into non political threads.

We don't know that until we read it.

Because some people can't help themselves. Many here define one another by their politics (on both sides) and have a habit of pushing agendas regardless of the thread.


Does Answerbank also need a new Boris-free zone for those obsessed with mentioning him?

Corbyn-free zone?
Farage-free zone?
Who or whatever is favour of the month-free zone.

In a nutshell, your idea is well er nuts.
