Not the answer Martin, if I block someone it means they can say whatever they like without being open to claims of defamation, Augusta is a great proponent of that.
Most of Alexander D's rants have been amusing such as when he accused me and one other of being in the pay of a foreign power designed to bring down the "English church" but accusations of being a bomber are being read all over the world wide web.

Just looked, his Facebook page appears to have low security settings so maybe anyone can see it.

If you block them you won't know when they are libelling you.

Just logged out and checked the link, you can see who he is but not his posts, but any Facebook member can read them,
He appears to have quite a few friends with Italian sounding names.

Agreed Peter only a complete idiot would take him seriously and there are a lot of idiots around especially on Facebook.

With respect you are thinking locally chaps/chapesses when stuff goes onto social media people do not know the history behind the loony that posts.
Just to give an idea of Facebook thinking they banned any photos of mothers breastfeeding their babies but have this view on bombing accusations.

Facebook have a policy of not allowing pseudonyms and rely heavily on user reports to highlight them........

Latest Facebook campaign is against Gordon Cowan, accusing him of stealing money from the old Post Office social club despite a thorough investigation by the police exonerating him.
The trolls this time are posting under their real names so Gordon could earn himself some money over it.

What "thread" or page is this under Howard,?
On another matter Cllr Bob Frost is at it again, posting offensive remarks on Twitter.

Not sure it's a great idea to reproduce the comment so I've removed your post Howard, hope you don't mind!

I remember that about Gordon as more a case of mismanagement on his part. Certainly were plenty of rumours at the time and since.

Would be difficult for police to take on this if it becomes law but the culprits seem to get away scot free, our MP gets a lot of spiteful comments aimed at him.
