One of the things, IMHO, that comes across as unnecessarily aggressive is the use of capital letters to make a point. It has usually been considered as shouting. Personally I would rather see that point being made by the use of italics, bold or underlining. But that’s just my view.
batrabill has made a good point about the insults (not quite sure I would have used that word) against the BA. As yet we don’t know what their stand is on the swim issue, hopefully we soon will. We have just assumed the Authority has happily gone along with it. After all, the first we knew about it was from an EDP article and I know full well what some of you think about Archant. I can’t comment as I am not local so have no idea.
Going back to this thread, I have to agree wholeheartedly with rightsaidfred’s last post - sums it all up nicely.
