Yes it was great to see on a video two of the BLM mob squaring up to one another with a knife apiece !! I reckon that if that Chap Colston could return he wouldn't have thought that there was a 200year gap between his era and what passes for civilisation to-day. I think he would have been weighing up some of that rioting mob as "merchandise" !!££££$$$$ . What else can you say ! Cheers Bewick.

Look on the bright side Bewick they're not chucking spears around.
That's what I call good race relations.

Watching Sky News this morning they reported on the South London street party and interviewed a reveller who informed the reporter that there was no problems everyone were enjoying theirselves until the police arrived. They caused the problem . FFS you can't educate pork , the whole point is there shouldn't have been a party because gatherings are banned , its illegal. But he wasn't appologetic towards the violence blaming the police for it. The reporter never once questiloned him on the legalities of the party. Probably because je was black and above the law and this is what i come to expect from left wing Sky News. Does anyone else get the feeling this was a set up to cause more tension. It should be one law for everyone if they dont like it accept the concequencies

This'll probably go on,all summer now.
Police unable to keep law and order..for fear of being labelled racists.

You sure can dig up relevant info CF but as I have the concentration of a "knat" you really do have to condense the "You Tube" bollox you post down to "bite sized" but still retain the "thrust" ( Oooo Errr!) of your spiel ! Cheers Bewick.

A strange thing happened in Glasgow this weekend! A police officer was was stabbed by an asylum seeker in a Glasgow Hotel and was critical in hospital, two hotel workers were also stabbed, yet no 'White Lives Matter' demonstrations.
Even stranger is that he also stabbed three other asylum seekers and the Luvvy's can't be bothered to get out of bed to protest about 'Brutality' in Scotland!

Instead the Scottish (Self Appointed) Council for Refugees is concerned about the 'Mental Health' of those who have travelled thousand's of miles to be punished by being accommodated free (To them but not the Taxpayer!) in a Glasgow Hotel. To add insult to injury they are also fed three, YES, that's right, THREE meals a day! Shameful, isn't it?
Poor souls, image the horror of clean beds and free meals, no wonder they have 'mental Health' issues! They also claim the Wi-Fi is poor, shameful. No other part of the UK has poor Wi-Fi (And we all know that's not true!) just the hotels in Glasgow, a crying shame!

In the UK, Equality is the buzz word, why then is it that the memory of bombings in London & Manchester, stabbings in Reading & Glasgow, are allowed by the press & media to slip quietly into history but BLM and their support for an American criminal goes on for ever!
All Are Equal But Some Are More Equal Than Others!

I posted on 'Old Time Lorries' etc and I notice it's shunted onto 'Bullys Truckstop Bar', whatever that is.
Are the Moderators frightened of Democracy? If so why not close down Trucknet, or is the revenue stream more valuable than Democracy?

Anything not truck related goes here.

I posted on 'Old Time Lorries' etc

Hi alexsaville,

A fair question, so here goes...

OLD TIME LORRIES, COMPANIES AND DRIVERS
... <snipped> ... This forum is for us all to indulge in a little nostalgia and remember with rose coloured glasses how much better it was in the olden days ...

A moderator moved the topic for being... off topic in that forum.

... and I notice it's shunted onto 'Bullys Truckstop Bar', whatever that is.

Some of the guys who only post in the Old Time Forum seem to think they can just plonk stuff in there that might better belong in another forum.

Here's what belongs in Bully's Bar:

BULLY'S TRUCKSTOP BAR
The place to unwind, tell a few tall tales, talk football, discuss news, even chat about the weather ... anything BUT TRUCKING !!!!

Here's a link to the Forum Index Page:

Understandable if the whole thing had been completely deleted, but that wasn't the case.

Sorry Alex, but I'm completely missing the point you're trying to make here.

The "revenue stream" (your words) is unaltered by whichever forum a topic is in.

...unless you think we charge you more for posting in Bully's Bar rather than in the Old Time Forum?

Thinking of "revenue stream," just how much was your last TN membership renewal?

BTW Alex, this is a Feedback type of question, so we could have moved it to.... The Feedback Forum, but that might have attracted another complaint.

Carryfast got this one spot-on, and he manged it with a single sentence.

Although I contribute to the 'Old Timer's' forum myself.....(being at the junior end of that category ) , I think one or two on there see that forum as some kind of exclusive club, that should be left alone to it's regular contributors only, and that basically anything goes.

I personally see why the thread was moved, it is/was more fitting with Bully's, .and I can't see any way how moving it, de.values the original post or subject in any way, or how moving it can be equated to contravening 'forum democracy' tbh.

No offence to the guy who complained, just felt I would stick my neb in.

In response to dieseldave.

Thank for your response.
In the past numerous topics have been on 'OLD TIME' etc ranging from the Scottish Independence Referendum, the EU Referendum to the General Election with a whole host of others in-between. None of them were ever moved to another location.
I ask myself why this particular subject has been singled out and can only come to one conclusion, PC!

'Some of the guys'...!
If it wasn't for 'Some of the Guys' the forum would be much poorer and the content diluted, Dennis (Bewick) for example has contributed much to the 'OLD TIME' content and has enhanced that area.
If he and others who have contributed decide to go Trucknet will be much poorer.
You mention that 'Bully's Truckstop Bar' is the place for 'Discuss News', I noticed that when you pulled Dennis's original topic regarding the WLM banner it was removed to 'Bully's' with no access to that area, was that to stop any discussion on the subject? I suggest it was, the reason being again PC.

Are the moderators afraid of Democracy?
It wasn't deleted but was also not allowed to go to the top of the topics page like all the other topic's and sat in the middle just like the Aerial Banner topic. Why is that?
Considering the matters discussed on the 'Professional Drivers' section of Trucknet it seems double standards apply.
The topic wasn't deleted, it was just 're-directed' without mentioning the subject or that it was being re-directed.

Revenue Stream
You say you are missing the point, the point is this, was the subject matter deemed to perhaps potentially offend your advertisers and that is why this single topic was given attention.
As to your comment about 'How much was my last TN membership renewal' my response is you wouldn't dare charge for access as the site would be empty overnight.
What seems to be forgotten here is that 'Trucknet', like Truck & Driver' is supposed to represent the views of Drivers past & present. That's the Prime Reason for Trucknet being here.
Either it is or it isn't!

Definitely on the junior end Rob , a friend of mine in his 70s does part time tanker training and his latest gig is a refresher for an 83 year old driver . Silly old sod , frightened of being at home with ‘er indoors all day .
