I think he's childish because he ignores large parts of posts and picks up on petty points, which he then goes on to repeat and repeat. There are plenty of people on Accyweb that disagree without being childish.

There's a letter from Graham Jones, and also a withering retort from his sister, who passionately attacks the smears, aimed at her and Graham's late grandmother, and sets the record straight on that particular matter.
All in all, as an exercise in public relations, Cllr. Marlene Haworth's letter can't be hailed as a great success.
Judging by the backlash, not only in this week's paper, but also what people are saying in the street, just the opposite was achieved.

If some people took the time to read the relevant threads on this forum, or inform themselves about what's been recently printed in the local press, perhaps they wouldn't continue to add misinformation to a vile smear campaign.
As first impressions go this has to be in the all time top three worst Accy Web introductions, and the others only pipped the top two places because they included death threats and/or threats of violence.

The fact that Andrewb is supporting this person, speaks volumes about himself IMHO.

Yes, quoting what people have actually said is sooooooooooo naughty.
Are you going to flounce off in another huff, accusing people of 'pickin' on you', and 'twisting your words'?
If you don't wish any part of your posts not to be quoted, the only way around this is not to post the things that might be deemed worthy of highlighting.

The vast majority of people, with a modicum of common sense, see and understand that.

That statement speaks volumes about you Andrew, and I'm disappointed to say that they're all rather negative tomes. The 'informed contribution' has been desultory and aches of anti-Labour cant whilst opposing a scheme that is for the good of the masses.
You wouldn't happen to know Eafield personally, would you?

It's unfortunate that you feel negatively because I've welcomed somebody on to Accringtonweb, a landlord, to contribute to a thread about landlord licensing.
No I do not know Eafield personally.

It's not the welcome, it's that you've found something laudable in gravelly posts that have tarmaced their way through this thread, rubbishing a scheme which is for the benefit of everyone involved in it.
You and I are definitely on different sides of the fence on this matter.

Re: Selective Licensing of Landlords
I should also add that coming onto a message board and throwing around baseless (and potentially libellous) accusations towards a councillor in a lengthy first post which is riddled with spelling errors that miraculously disappear from more pithy replies further into the thread is likely to arouse suspicion and get people's backs up.
The whole purpose of Eafield's contribution appears to have been politically-motivated, whether intentional or not.

True but ya know who does. the stuff about yer welcome is more crap, if the guy had introduced himself, i would have welcomed him, as i normally do. i question if he is in fact a landlord? or just a letting agent? i don't know n nor do you if ya don't know him.

I was introduced to the forum by a friend on the merit of a conversation about Selective Licensing.
I have jumped in at the deep end with a subject I do indeed feel passionately about. As a discussion forum I would have expected its members to welcome another opinion. I confess I did not look through the introduction for which I apologies, I will introduce myself retrospectively and with an apology.
I am disappointed in myself for allowing my points to be diluted by petty procrastination over a miss typed date, a contended point of dates which has yet to be replied to further to my last comment to Claytonender and a question to a councillor about his current level of involvement in the rental market.
You say you agree with some of my comments, yet like many others in this forum you seem keen to quibble minor points and have entirely avoided giving an opinion on the real issues raised.
I will indeed be far more careful in what I post in future, I did not realise so many could be offended so deeply by things such as the above along with the spelling and grammar of a participant.
Had I been introduced on a less relevant point I may well have spent more time looking at other elements of the site, as it is so far, I have limited time and this was the issue I joined to discuss. I will indeed continue to contribute to the site, albeit only where I feel I have a constructive and relevant point.
Going to the matter at the head of this thread, “selective licensing”.
May I graciously ask, as you have now advised you are a landlord, are you accredited and if so when were you accredited?
I am a landlord, I am not accredited, although I applied to be over 12 months ago. Yes i’m an agent also. I do not have issue with being licensed, I do not have issue with paying for it. For the record, I only have two houses that will be affected by the scheme.
May I also graciously ask will your property be affected by the scheme?
I look forward to hearing back.

...and are you going to apologise to Graham Jones too, now you're better informed by what was delivered in evidence in post 140?
Not really a wise move, wrongly accusing well respected members of this forum, of things that turn out not to be true.
