Subject: RE: BS: So why has the BNP gained votes?
Martin, I'm not a 'complicated' person

When my bank rang me up because I'd suddenly, against all previous practice, made an expensive purchase on the internet using my credit card, I was inconvienienced momentarily but grateful that someone had recognized that I had no previous history of this kind of behaviour but knew that such fraud happened only too often

I have no idea whether the Chris Shaw that posted briefly 18 months ago is the same person as the alleged BNP supporter but, simple observation informs me that there is a rash of mudcat identity theft on Facebook (I have been targetted myself) and a spate of guest posting here too (which Joe Offer has identified coming from the same ISP) and that, despite the long running and combatative nature of these threads, this is the first post from that particular 'guest' on the subject - as I pointed out all the previous posts having been very helpful musical contributions!

Guest postings are officially not allowed below the line but nevertheless the moderators cannot be everywhere and different time zones ensure that any Brit knows they have a window of opportunity to make disparing remarks about other nationalities or races which will remain here until attention is brought to them!

I don't think you will find any examples of cyber bullying in any of my posts however for one period in which 'I' chose to post under a consistent guest name only, I had that name deliberately and cynically abused!
