Prioritising is the best argument. If we are going to discuss a 'political' subject and try to do something about it, then let's keep it within our tribal skills, expertise and knowledge. We cannot cover everything in discussion (though we have wide news coverage).

And I agree that ET is largely bottom-up and I support the light touch. I just don't like anyone telling me what is absurd or unsubstantiated. It is fair to question the appropriateness of a diary, but not to dismiss it (as in this historical case, in which a diary of mine was front paged by Bob before being dismissed by the proprietor).

It was the way it was done, not why it was done. But, as I said, it is historical, so let's forget it ;-) Let's prioritise.

You can't be me, I'm taken
