How do you leave? - Page 4

I like blazey feel aggrieved when my email/emails are not responded to; not to do so with a the very least an acknowledgment of receipt is B rude and to totally ignore them doubly so. And like blazey I will spread the news of the way that I feel I have been misused far and wide.

I have had emails ignored; once when I asked why my complaint about a death was not dealt with and a third party allowed to respond and not the poster of the death threat. That email was ignored.

More emails where ignored when I addressed one question to more than one recipient after failing to get any response from the first single addressee; and in that case asking the web editor about the emails who again ignored the basic question that I had repeated in the email to him and I was still ignored.

Then I went as far as asking about the emails openly on the boards of the forum for them still to be ignored and a suggestion made that the boards was not the right place to ask. Where then I ask; was the right place?

A death threat was not something that needed addressing and emails ignored about that?

To me this is an arrogant disregard for social niceties and the feelings of people shown by some concerns; and in my case; a carers charity.

Spot on Jen, I took the same decision as you when I was 16 a few years earlier than you did though, 46 years ago and have never wavered since, and I don't think we are the only ones on here either, I know at least another 3

Have you ever been on jury service and seen the silly clothes they wear, and the pompous poses they strike.

I don't agree with sticking to your beliefs even if they are wrong. If you think your beliefs are wrong how can you believe in them?

I think that you are misinterpreting what was ment. It is possible to not agree with some policies of the party that you support but still support that party. If you don't agree you make sure that your views are listened too.

I have supported the Labour party for over 45 years.

She certainly has the right qualifications, All GOB and very little sense, and she's still young enough to know every thing.

Never thought that was an option in the Labour Party claytonender, I remember the late George Slynn opposing the closure of homes for the elderly and he was out on his ear

Now you're going to tell us Maggie Thatcher was always known for having a sympathetic ear for others opinions.

I've moved from one social situation to another in the past two years. I've gone from living in one place to another, and things are different in the real world that lies beyond Accrington.

Lancaster has a large amount of support for the Green Party for a start, a party which isn't really that influential in Accrington. You become of more issues at University than ever before. I went to Labour because I thought that as a student from a working class background they would appreciate my input, as the 'class ceiling' in a big issue at the moment and even more so in this economic downturn. Instead I was called twice in a 7 month period and this was to put up a poster. They didn't know anything about me or what I believed in, they base their following on faceless statistics.

YOU are faceless statistics. If you want to remain that way then vote for labour. It doesn't care about your individual needs, it cares about its vote count and its revenue. That's the problem with socialism really, looking at the average opinion of the masses and not at the variables, letting those most in need slip under the radar.

How many of you have actually been in my position? This is today, not your day. The youth of today don't go out and work in the local shops and consider that hard work, that's the easy option these days. I know students who hold down full time jobs alongside their studies, I'm just fortunate enough to have a flexible job where I get to do a lot of meaningful work with young people, many of which are from this town and those close by.

I do what I do with my full commitment and I'm not getting that from Labour in return, who are meant to be representing me. If it is so bad that I have lost faith in them well then fine. But at least I care enough to say so, which is better than just blindly accepting it.

Did you expect to be called to help Gordon Brown through the current political crisis?
Get real, there are a lot of grass roots Labour supporters who would be glad to do whatever the party required of them......and after all 7 months isn't such a long time is it.
The fact that you have belonged to the Labour Party.....a card carrying member will always be on your record.

And you ask if anyone has been in your position, and of course the answer will be 'NO' there is only ever YOU in your position.......you think that because we grew up years ago that you are experiencing things that we never did....and some of that might be a fair assumption....but there is nothing new under the sun.

As for the Labour party letting you down.... if you are so disillusioned with the party and you can see where it is going wrong(because of course you are young enough to know everything)don't you think the party deserved for you to stay and work on improving the party from the inside?

No Blazey don't answer these questions for me, because I don't really need to know.

Quite simply you are a prima donna who seems to have this idea that you are better than most people on accyweb. Even though I know I'm better than some members (mancie & Jam Butty)

I do not try to belittle them, thinking about it yes I do but I'm a bit more diplomatic than you. Whatever your response is to this post will not be replied to because I really don't give a **** what you think, come back when you've grown up a bit although I suspect the grown up Blazey will be an even more immature version of the one we know now.
