Did you ban John Hemming (the MP) for outing me ?

Cos he isn't on The Thread.

And I'd like to know why.

I am immaginging that the party whip we've been phoning, emailing and twittering has tied him up and run off with his keyboard.

Can I hang on to that fantasy, or did you ban him ?

It's not the end of the world to me that he posted my twitter account, knowing it was me and knowing it was my real name. But I will quickly drum up some minding if required to purge MN of his presence.

Excellent. Now we don't have to bring it to LIBDEM attention. They can find it and groan on their own time.

It's someone linking to your blog post.

wikipedia

"Between 1st December 2013 and 23rd Dec 2013 John Hemming posted frequently [29] on topics on Mumsnet (a UK parenting forum) regarding the case of an Italian Woman sectioned in the UK with her newborn baby taken into care by British Social Services [30]

During this debate he posted extracts from un-redacted documents which named the children of the woman involved, potentially breaking a court order, and he was subsequently banned from the parenting site.[31] After confirming the poster really was MP John Hemming, Mumsnet removed the documents that he had posted but not before they had been seen by many of the forum users."

Someone who was very busy yesterday , because wiki said that this morning.

lougle · 30/12/2013 20:17

Looks like JH has been naughty on restirred in the past:

www.restirred.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1017&p=15326

"After great expense Team Re~Stirred has take legal advise (Contributions Gladly Accepted) it is considered that any references to any
legal case that maybe sub judice in which a child could be identified could be an offence under Section 97 of the Children Act 1989

Although John Hemming can use parliamentary privilege to do so in the Houses of Parliament and what he said is recorded on Hansard
and JH's own blog and on other websites it would be unwise for us to allow links to those websites that may or may not be in contempt.

The matter of the details are for the courts to consider in which the Palace of Westminster is one or the law makers to set the rules."

CarpeVinum · 30/12/2013 20:19

after their great expense, doubt he is too popular there.

lougle · 30/12/2013 20:20

Mignonette · 30/12/2013 20:23

WestmorlandPigInBlanket · 30/12/2013 20:23
