Remember the CPBWRN and I wish you well. We are trying to help. The vast majority of CUK posters hate you and us.
I don't get this twisted up logic; say what you mean in plain speak. No-one but you has indicated 'hate' towards what I am doing. How do you justify writing something as vicious as my name ending up 'standing for mud' ? I think creative action can be taken and that it is time to stop hiding and feeling ashamed and frightened.Comment

I can see you have had little dealings with the press. I have been dealing with them for 15 years now.
"I think" - don't make me laugh.
"creative action" - what EXACTLY do you expect to achieve?
No-one is ashamed and frightened. There are some very bright people out there. Who have learnt their lesson.
In fact, I learnt my lesson in 2003. Tried to pass it onto Huitson lot. Failed. Who now preach what I have been since 2003.
However, YOU clearly know best. YOU want to ride your ego - in fact I suspect that you would rather that things only change if you get credit. No credit for you, no interest. Go your own way. Do as YOU please. Just please come and report back when you are done - its not just me who needs a laugh.Comment

Good luck in your quest. A word of caution for your own sanity though, taking on the might of HMRC is not going to bring you any peace. The press and MPs have already heard this story several years ago and the establishment just closed ranks. The public dont care. The whole montpelier saga has caused massive stress to many and will continue to bankrupt people for some years to come.
I recommend meditation, let it go move on and find a way to happiness again. Think about it, they just aren’t going to change the law no matter how much noise you manage to generate. The best that could happen is an MP speaks up the next time HMRC introduce such draconian legislation but given their tendancy to toe the party line in the interests of career progress rather than voter representation even that seems a lost cause.Comment

Publicity may help your cause (it won't but hey you can live in hope). If however you do end up in the papers expect some people to identify you and make your life insufferably...Comment

Originally posted by ConfusedEasily View PostAny publicity will attract idiots - and you know what? It dies down.

Trolls move onto something else.

I’m an advisor and there’s no secret that therefore I make money from assisting others through all this but I’d like to think that there’s enough people in this forum who would say I’ve given what advise I can in so many free calls (plus other actions I’m not going to state here) that I’ve long since lost count. I’m doing what I can as there’s a human aspect to all of this. I find it amazing therefore that when someone like summerhill tries to do something she’s shot down like it’s a bad thing or ,even more remarkably, causing damage. It’s her life we are talking about here and they have every right to try. To do nothing is to accept defeat. There’s no further to fall for many so the only way is up.Comment

This guy is also harrassing me with messages about digging graves - I'm taking it that 'banned' means that ? thanks. I won't dignify this with any further repliesComment

Had I seen this before PokemonStay had asked for his own ban I would have permabanned him. He knew he had crossed a line.
I have marked his card. If he looks at this thread again once he returns he will be permabanned (and his sockies as well if it is who I think it is...)"I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
