Nah. He was on my ignore list before yours.
That's more like abstaining from the game.

I'm playing. It needs some self control though!No-one cares about my game. :'(
I agree.I am no saint when it comes to forum etiquette and behaviour but actively and publicly ignoring someone and encouraging others to do the same would be totally unacceptable in real life.
Eddie Mair completely destroying Boris on PM today is well worth a listen:

I heard a different clip of this interview that was even worse. People gave Diane Abbott a hard time (rightly) but this was a different level of incompetence.
I heard it live on my drive home, was very funny.
Its very interesting to see how Abbot gets absolutely castigated in the press and online, but this gets shrugged off as 'that's Boris'

Abbott’s disastrous interview mattered. It mattered to the media. People cited it when revealing how they were going to vote. But Johnson’s won’t matter. It will be filed in the folder marked The Joy of Good Old Boris. Abbott’s brain fade played into all sorts of perceptions society has about her as a tad too assertive for its taste, about women who take senior roles, about black Britons who dare to peer over the parapet. You have to be twice as good if you’re outside the cohort that runs the world, our parents told us: parity doesn’t cut it.
That doesn’t stop women or minorities reaching positions of great importance in modern Britain for in all sorts of ways we have made great strides. But the stakes are different. God help you if you get it wrong. Brace for the hardest impact.
