MNHQ - why are you so squeamish about any discussion about leaving the EU

Completely agree. At least half the threads in AIBU don’t belong there.
The OP of the latest thread specifically requested for it not to be moved to the Brexit board but MNHQ moved it anyway.
So it’s fine to use the board with the most traffic to ask people what they’re having for dinner but not to discuss the most important issue facing us and our children?
Makes perfect sense

They rarely move AIBU posts which should be on the feminist board or the Christmas board etc

I don't give a stuff about seeing the Brexit stuff, it doesn't bother me, but the trans stuff does - and I don't see the difference ?

Well, as someone who has hidden the brexit board for my own sanity, I do understand why people complain.
The Brexit topic has got it’s own board so you really should be starting threads there.
It’s not just brexit threads people complain about though, it’s anything trans related too ( from what I’ve seen )

But I honestly think it’s not leavers who ask for threads to be moved, I’ve ertainly never complained, it’s probably people who have no interest in brexit and come on MN for light relief.
Yes I know they can ignore the threads, but why should they see them at all when there’s a dedicated board that they’ve probably hidden?

I think it's right that they are moved. Just as otger threads.

It's like you're encouraging the dumbing down of MN.

Congratulations for the most ridiculous comnent of the day.

I would like to see somewhere to put all the trans threads and have them moved to that part of the site. The argument is always that they are entitled to be anywhere. So why does this not apply to all subjects?

Or MN could make the Brexit board more obvious, rather than hiding under “Other stuff”.

Given that “Sporting Events” has its own headline category, yet has had only a handful of comments in the last 6 months, why not give such an active topic as Brexit its own more prominent category?

So do relationships, TV, education, politics, cookery, schools and everything else that ends up in AIBU

why does only Brexit always get moved ?

It's an important enough subject to have its own topic.

I think it'sright that threads are moved into it.

It was IIRC introduced by popuoar demand, it means it's easy to find threads.

Witchy
Considering it took Dominic Raab until last week to realise how important the Dover Calais bottleneck is,
YES WE DO need a lot more discussion, information and debate.

You could try reporting the posting for traffic ones and get them moved.

Yes, there is definitely a shortage of discussion, tv debate, new items, newspapers articles, online argument - we need more!!!

Agree. But also think there is a cohort of posters who really don't like people talking about Brexit.

(Bizarrely, I think they are people who voted for it.)

I wonder why people complain ? can they just not click on the thread ?

Agree with the OP

I've wondered this as well. It's such an important issue that could affect many aspects of our lives, and it's happening now.

Agree with OP.

I agree with the above post and would also like clarity on this.
