My blog = my rules!

 
As Monica says in Friends, “rules are good, rules help control the fun!”

First: if you’re a constituent and after a detailed response or want to introduce a new topic,  please email or write to me. If you’re not a constituent I’m afraid you’ll have to contact your own MP.

Second: I don’t have a problem with trenchant criticism of me or the Government*, or vociferously expressed opinions, but if I regard your comments as offensive I won’t allow them to appear. (I don’t like having to moderate comments, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that people cannot be relied upon not to abuse my good nature!) This includes nasty personal attacks on people I like, and anything which is potentially libellous.

Thirdly: I might just randomly delete comments from certain people because I’m getting thoroughly fed up with them and want them to go away and annoy someone else for a while. You know who you are.

That’s all – although I reserve the right to create new rules as and when I feel like it. My blog = my rules!
 
* This was from the old rules. Obviously I have even less of a problem with trenchant criticism of the Government now!
