It could be that I have missed it but I haven't seen much reporting by the BBC about Barry Gardiner and his department receiving over £400000 from a Chinese spy. Then employing her son, but I'm sure it was all above board.
They reported it, but I'm baffled as to why him? Did they mix him up with someone important? He has been soft on Chinese repression though.

Can you tell that to @Irishshako and @OLOF cos they keep making threats like.

Kinda does make your point though <ok>
I'll bite, if you read back you'll see two posters having a go at each other and calling each other this and that. I wasn't involved in name calling, infact I was trying to use humour to deflate the situation and lighten the mood. I wasn't threatening anyone I was using banter and as OLOF has carpentry skills I said he could make a coffin, you are really clutching at straws if you are turning a throw away comment into being a threat to someone. You always do that, ignore what certain posters say to wind up others, but pick out comments from posters who you don't like. <grr>

Jammie’s just jealous cos he’s having to pay for his coffin and I get mine free <laugh> and it’s bespoke made by a real craftsman
 
I think accusing someone of making threats is way out of order. Running to the teacher telling tales, ****ing should expect that though.<grr>
It wasn’t meant to be taken literally as anyone with half a sense of humour would have been able to tell.

Obviously we all have different views when it comes to banter and I get my fair share of insults on here and always take them with good grace.

Anyway it was kinda hilarious having Roger demanding an apology for something said in jest.

Very woketastic I thought

I didn't see what Makem posted. It was the spat with dirty and OLOF that I got involved with and I certainly try and not act the keyboard warrior on here because there is no point. But I was trying to calm the situation down.<ok>

Yeh I know and you should know that I know but the net needed casting and little old Roger just couldn’t resist swallowing the hole rod.

As I said just a bit of fun and anyone up to speed on the comments would have known that.

No point being on here if casting a nice tasty morsel on a big juicy hook isn’t considered banter anymore
