Yet another Anti web page...

I object to the BBC wasting our licence money on providing webspace for selfish tripe such as this. Angela Deathwish should be her name and it would be better if they spent more resources on learning to spell, 'effect' when it should read affect. Testing high powered 4x4s indeed, I always stop while walkers and horses go past, is this how they reward you?, shouldn't bother next time.

I notice I couldn't register an anti-anti vote ... "Unfortunately, we have a technical problem Please come back later. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

Didn't dare try clicking on the 'support this campaign' in case it was working ...

It says all that needs saying about the BBC, and it's supposed impartiality. Perhaps it is time to abolish the TV Licence, as the Beeb is cleary being used as a political tool these days.

A little hasty there Richard, there were 3 people supporting the petition and 133 against it, and there are pro-4x4 "have your say" things too. The beeb doesn't create "have your say" pages, they can be thrown up by anyone.

So while the beeb can be a bit lefty lesbian pro-religion we-can-learn-a-lot- from-backward-tribes-who-can't-even-write, this one's not one that can be chalked up against it.

I had seen that (it should be 140 against as of 20 mins ago!). The person that set it up is probably had their cosy little world rather shaken up!

I just don't think they should be doing it at all, either anti or pro. If they feel they *must* do it, then they need to ensure they link to *all* related sites (to maintian impartiallity), which is no small task. Just becasue it's going "our" way doesn't make any odds.

Richard

5 supporting, 158, no 159 as I type... not supporting now. And the "Aims" are now "This article has been hidden pending moderation"... Presumably thats automagic if the number of negs exceeds the pos by a certain amount.

Site is PITA to navigate, I can't find any way for getting back to the main campaign page after voting or from a comment thrown up by a search.

"Hidden pending moderation"

So is that because the Beeb don't like the content OR because they don't like it being shown that a vast majority don't agree with their anti-4x4 views so they're not reporting the issues fairly? Greg

I know what I think ;-)

Richard

Now at 4 for and 165 against.

oooh, well done.

and I read John Thomas's "supporter" comment as being a bit of a blunder, and Mark Todd's feelng sorry for her! So that's only

2 supporters really.

Ah! And looking at her profile, she looks like an ex-townie

- only lived in Dorset for nearly 5 years (so that's probably just over 4) trying hard to "fit in". What's the betting she's bought a house near a lane and her solicitor forgot to mention it so she's looking for someone to blame?

Richard

OK, here we go!

I reckon I'm on a shitlist at the moment too, never had any comments published even when I'm one of the first to post in, I suspect my somewhat illiberal views on the religious got me into hot water. Something about burning churches I think ;-)

Now that I can read the text, and assuming it hasn''t had any naughty words removed during moderation, I can't see any possible excuse for hiding it when you can read the whole sentence in a few seconds. If this in any way reflects the feeling of most people then the press should be rather embarassed to be pushing anti 4x4 stories the way they are. Greg

Unforutunately it's more likely that the Beeb will decide it's a bunch of viscious, nasty, 4x4 types ganging up on a little old lady - just look at what they did, under Smiling Tony's direction, to the fuel protesters - all that intimidation that was widely reported as going on, yet they never managed to film, photo, or even wintness it - but they still reported it as a fact, and were quite happy to let everyone think it was widespread.

Richard

Are you trying to say we were............................mis-informed??????? Surely not, we can trust every word that comes from our caring gov & Auntie Beeb.....can't we?

I'm glad someone else found this. I was close to giving up while trying to vote, read feedback and then post a comment. I post on BBC forums as Dick Wright, by the way. Wright because I am always right, and Dick because - well - it's a form of Richard, innit?

didn't seem to offer that to me.

True, the choice was not obvious, but it's there, & my vote (they said) was registered.

At the bottom, there's a box that says "If you are not a bbc.co.uk member and do not want to become one right now you can continue browsing Action Network" - click on that & your vote is done.
