No-one has been excluded from this forum simply for expressing contrary views. That is a slur against the moderators. Perhaps you're confusing this with what your Tories try to do (ask Heseltine). Your friend's abuse frequency was way higher than anyone else's. That's why he's not here and you know it. Stop bleating about this and make an honest man of yourself, and stop calling for the reinstatement of a man whose abuses you are excusing only because you're a fellow-traveller of his. It wouldn't be half so bad if you weren't constantly whingeing about how you think people abuse YOU all the time.
