that is online bullying - you're saying only people who communicate in a way you consider appropriate should be allowed. Why should your opinion decide whether someone stays or goes?

No. I defend his right to be a prick on private property that welcomes him. I’d just rather he wasn’t welcome here. 

How would you feel if people said they would rather you weren't welcome here?

You need to understand the forum isn't just about you and few other fellows who you like.

If you succeed in driving someone away who I enjoy reading you are spoiling it for me and maybe several others.

I certainly don’t need you to defend me in any way whatsoever. Freedom of speech is one of the cornerstones of the Libertarian ethos is it not 🤷‍♂️or in your case only if it aligns with your views I guess. 
 

PS Wishing me dead’s a bit harsh don’t you think, 🤷‍♂️so much for that other Libertarian value of welcoming diversity 😞you ain’t no Libertarian, you’re just another anonymous left wing twat.

That’s a typical ATL mistaken assumption, reading what you are posting I’m pretty confident none of the shite you are coming out with is ever gonna touch anything. 
I merely pointed out armed forces pay tax and pay for their food and accommodation, you replied with a ludicrous comment about uniformed “ Dolescum” surely a contradiction in itself never mind being a feeble effort at getting a rise. 
By the way any individuals serving in the armed forces, they don’t get a choice where they get sent, you are deployed as a unit and have zero say in the matter. 
Dosser 😂😂😂😂make your mind up man, I get wise cracks off other ATL fools for chasing the money too much. 

 

ATL again. What is their number now, 30, 40? Bit weird that they grow ever more numerous , they'll be legion soon. Are they affiliated to the AWL? I believe your presence was requested over on the Wordle thread recently. This one is pretty much at saturation point now Davey.

Nah fortunately quite an exclusive club, I’d say 5-6 regulars including yourself one of the founding members. No pun intended.

Because they cost a bloody fortune to build, install and maintain. The areas with sufficient tidal flow to make it worthwhile are by nature a nightmare to carry out Subsea Construction in be it with divers or rovs. There are a few around the UK. Something like the Severn Barrage which has been talked about for god knows how long would be a far better option long term.  Second highest tidal range in the world down there the energy potential is huge. We just don’t have the balls as a nation it seems to do such things nowadays.
