Tim Ireland on tabloids, media, blogs and politics
On the subject of retro-moderation
I’ve just made my very first post – ever – to Labourhome.
I hope it doesn’t get deleted or anything…
-
UPDATE – Prepare to choke back just a little bit of vomit; a joint statement from Alex Hilton and Derek Draper has just been released.
UPDATE – LabourList mirror here. Oh, and Tom’s likely to be disappointed if he’s seriously expecting me to kiss and ‘make up’ with Draper.
Here; I made an easy-to-understand diagram…
me and people I choose to associate with

Note the line. It’s not at all fuzzy. Also, Hilton and Draper are desperate for a Labour-oriented career. Me, not so much. Tom’s waiting for something that isn’t going to happen.

Who knows? Perhaps he has been sent a writ by Derek’s lawyers? Perhaps he has decided it was a lot of rubbish and deleted it…..

re: "me and people I choose to associate with"I could be wrong (it has been known…) but didn't one of those deleted post contain a comment from Alex saying he doesn't judge his friends, and in doesn't choose his friends (in a kind of reverse "you can't choose your family" way).I'm not sure where I'm going with this comment, but it just struck me as odd, even if he was joshing.

Pity there's no record of it any more, or we could look it up.
