If I posted something vaguely rude on here I would be deducted ten points and the post would be deleted pretty quick, If I was vile enough to post a rip off loans advert it would take longer for it to be removed. Sense of wrong priorities?

Yes = we live is a "PC" Society .. one where 'cash for honours' gets headline press whilst corruption in the Postal Voting system is treated as 'naughty boys' (and no-one seems to care).
Election Fraud that would 'shame a Banana Republic ' (Judges words, not mine) is allowed to flourish for 2 years, and will no doubt effect the outcome of the Council Elections this week ... whist the Police spend their time tracking down emails suggesting that some-one may have been promised a peerage if they donated money to the party ... I guess it's a reflection a Voters apathy - who cares what fraud is happening when half the populace can't be bothered to vote at all ?
So what's more important in the PC Society ?
Protecting Citizens from criminals, rip-off merchants and con-men ? or appeasing those who might be 'offended' at your language ???
Mark of our Government = the 'perception' (spin) is more important than the 'substance' (actually doing something) ...
