I just ask myself what I want to get out of discussions on this board.

Most of all I just want to have fun debating, but I also like to reherse my own arguements to see if they stand up to scrutiny, try and persuade others of my point of view, and understand and learn from others' points of view.

None of those can be achieved by hurling insults - so thats why I try to avoid doing so.

Criticising ineptitude of the unions can hardly be described as insulting. Telling someone they belong in the National Front and calling them a 'prick' (both of which have been said to me) are insults.

"Hmmm...a union which can actually make a reasonably sensible decision. Makes a change." That's not a criticism, that's just a snide remark.

We all have to work together after this so I don't care if you love Blair (ok I do) or love Brown (the same), but we have to work together to dig this party out of a hole it is in.

Given that Blair and Brown have dominated this party for over a decade, what is the hole you feel the party is in, and how did this hole materialise? Surely the dominance of Blair / Brown might have had something to do with it?

I think Wiseman may well share your view of that...

So what? It's my honest opinion on the matter.

Ahh not the prick saga again. Please, get over it. It's not a major insult for me - but maybe that's just because I'm young and everyone I know just swears at each other. Again, I'm sorry if I offended you.

No need to apologise again, I was only making a point to GH. I won't bring it up again.
