Hello to all you #frothers
Thought I'd take the liberty of starting us a nice new thread as the other is getting rather full. :)

You're knot, not your knot. Tsk.

Hullygully · 03/12/2011 11:20

I'll be one if it will help - but I don't really need Power, honest!

KateMiddIeton · 03/12/2011 11:47

there is no real power on FB. You just like a few bits and stick on a few posts. No need to even do that many posts if we can auto-feed from the blog. Other groups like UK uncut have lost people like us because of the volume of stuff that spams up your page. I think a couple of FB posts per week is fine. Enough to be visible but not enough to be overwhelming and get us un-liked.

We may get the odd bit of spam on the page which you get to delete. That's about as powerful as it gets Grin

Pm me your FB username and I'll add you as an admin.

Can I join?

KateMiddIeton · 03/12/2011 11:58

Welcome OnlyWantsOne. No need to join. You are either a frother or you're a ConDem not - its a state of mind Grin

You can join the blog, Facebook page, or Twitter and find people like you if you want or froth here to get it all out.

Hello, new thread :)

I've replied to all my PMs now! Anybody else who wishes to add their frothing insights to the blog at toomanycuts.blogspot.com, please PM me your email address.

I was thinking it's be good to blog some of the posts from these threads. We'd need the authors to agree, wouldn't we?

CardyMow · 03/12/2011 15:13

I don't mind my posts being used. I'm going to get to writing the blog about the ESA/JSA trap tonight. I am going out soon, to take a gaggle of teenage girls to dribble over vampires. (DD and her friends want to go to the cimena to watch breaking dawn...I am going to sit in Costa and stay warm until it's finished).

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 03/12/2011 15:16

I don't think you have to ask, newspapers re-print us all the time without asking.

(Unless they ask HQ?)

Did we agree to allow all comments? I think we should. And just delete anything totally crap.

tethersjinglebellend · 03/12/2011 15:31

Can I join you?

I have a lot of anger and nowhere to put it. It keeps spilling over onto nice threads about kittens.

lubeybaublely · 03/12/2011 15:57

Hi tethers! We will always need more #frothers so yes, welcome.. let your rage fly here!

I'm all frothed out today. Been trying to write some stuff for the blog for ages but it's just coming out all garbled and ragey. I need to calm the feck down and write something intelligent and engaging rather than FUCKING FUCKING CUNTY WANKERS WHO THE FUCK DO THEY THINK THEY FUCKING ARE FRITTERING OUR CASH AWAY ON TOTAL POINTLESS SHITE WHILE DEPRIVING THE VULNERABLE

Right. Chocolate. Day off. Starting now :o

FontSnob · 03/12/2011 16:04

The parent who contacts them is the parent who has to pay the money

From another thread, which I can't now find because i'm inept , on the changes to the CSA.

WTF? Seriously, which stupid cunt came up with that hellishly stupid idea?

What is the point in a system designed to make people who don't want to pay, pay, that relies on the person who is not paying to contact them to talk about paying?!!!!!!!!???????????????????????????? STUPIDITY ON A HUGE SCALE!!!

KateMiddIeton · 03/12/2011 16:08

Hey Tethers and other newbs. Yes come vent. Tis what we're for.

Activism bits for those who are feeling motivated and tea and sympathy for those who are worn out with it all.

Seriously, the only thing the CON-DEM fuckers hear is that the deficit has risen. Fuck off, seriously. FUUUUUUUUCK OFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

FontSnob · 03/12/2011 16:32

AAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHH

tethersjinglebellend · 03/12/2011 16:52

Anyone up for an educational one?

Listen up kids, the wise new head of OFSTED spake unto us...

"Why should equality and elitism be too often seen as incompatible?"

Eh?

Youwhatnow?

FontSnob · 03/12/2011 16:54

Sorry Tethers, I iz a teachur, i iz too fick to understand that wot da cleva people iz sayin. innit.

FontSnob · 03/12/2011 16:56

The equal elite? I am equally as elite as is you. Sire.

tethersjinglebellend · 03/12/2011 17:07

There's more good news from him:

"if anyone says to you that 'staff morale is at an all time low' you will know you are doing something right"

FontSnob · 03/12/2011 17:22

Oh, what a cunt. Probably a friend of Gove.

NorfolkNCarolSingers · 03/12/2011 17:28

What the actual fuck?! Staff morale being low = doing something RIGHT?!

What planet is this guy on?

tethersjinglebellend · 03/12/2011 17:39

I bring you... Sir Michael Wilshaw

NormaSparklerFlashBangAhhh · 03/12/2011 17:44

Please can I join? I have seen frothers on other threads, and definitely share common cause/opinion.

Marking place to come back later.

UrsulaTurkeyCurryBuffay · 03/12/2011 17:51

Oh I want to be a frother, I am angry sort of person and should use my powers for good Grin joined twitter recently, am following a few mners including mmeL but am under my real-ish name. Initials are js and my tweets are protected but some of you might like to know who your stalkers are!

FontSnob · 03/12/2011 18:04

Some children are designated as having special educational needs as a cover for poor teaching.

Says incoming head of OFSTEAD.

garlicnutter · 03/12/2011 18:05

Te, we're allowing comments with OpenID logins as well as Google ones (at least, it says we are Confused)

Haterz who can't even be bothered to sign in don't deserve the time it takes to delete them, imo ...
