It probably won't really worry a champagne socialist like yourself will it?Slightly off topic, but how can someone get away with calling another poster a bellend.Surely that is against forum protocol.And so is trolling, but folk get away with itAccusations on here of trolling are subjective and largely false.Calling someone an ‘utter bell end’ is nothing short of pathetic. The great one blocks people for less.Hats off to Axholme for not being dragged down to such levels of immaturity and ignorance, despite the provocation.

The great one blocks people for less.Hats off to Axholme for not being dragged down to such levels of immaturity and ignorance, despite the provocation.The thing here Belton is that because Filos leader is the most prolific poster on the forum, then it is reasonable to expect that he will get the most responses, particularly given that many of his posts are designed to provoke a reaction.However, invariably, whenever anyone writes something that isn’t in agreement then Filo piles in, probably to gain some brownie points, and accuses others of being a troll.Of course when bst constantly jumps onto posts by another posters, like BrantonRed for example, then good old Filo never says a word.I have agreed with bst on some things and I have clicked the like button on his posts too but for some reason that isn’t trolling, apparently.
Well as they say, “ if the cap fits”I never mentioned a name, but two found the need to comment, I was just pointing out that trolling is against forum protocol, nothing more, nothing less, if you are going to call out protocol, you need to call out all of them, just for balance, cos I know you like the quote “Just for balance”

Back on topic I can see that BA are still operating flights to Moscow. Tomorrow for instance from Heathrow. Surely airlines around the world should look to sanction Russia by limiting the ability of its people to get around. Why target just the wealthy? Whilst they hold a lot of power and influence, there would be no better way to alienate his own people from him by banning international travel in and out of Russia.

But they are still happy to fly to the aggressor nation. It just seems a bit daft.
I see Liz is now saying any English team who gets to the CL final in St Petersburg should boycott it
Well the Russians have invaded, time to boot out all the dodgy Russians in this Country and confiscate all their UK assets, and for NATO to make it clear that put one step on NATO soil and it’s full scale military confrontation, Belarus must also be sanctioned, the free world can not allow this to happen
