The closure of PoFo is very similar to Brexit, you are not about to change anything by ranting away; I'd be surprised if Lewis and Carty knew that much about Fox.

Dubdrifter, Ukraine was invaded. Sword's support for the invasion offended Fox. He didn't know how many were posting in support of the invasion and simply shut down his site, he gave people fair warning, he could have done it at any time.
It was his site to close, nobody's stopping you opening your own, which you will control.

It's a shame the forum closed, and the reason given for it was odd: he considered one position on one issue to be beyond the pale after years of tolerating every other position on every other issue. That can't have been the whole story. But to bring in "censorship" and "deep state archives" is ludicrous. Some bloke made an eccentric decsion about a forum he owned, some other bloke has created a sanctuary for the waifs and strays cast adrift thereby. Let's move on.

Some bloke made an eccentric decsion about a forum he owned, some other bloke has created a sanctuary for the waifs and strays cast adrift thereby. Let's move on. Hi Paulus de B … good to see you made it to the new space. Always respected your contributions. I agree with your post-mortem … we are all forced to move on … but premature burial of this rotten censorship programme is a detective exercise too interesting to ignore. (… btw … when I clicked to “quote” you here … your “author” name came up as “bierkabouter”?? … slightly weird? … have you two profile identities on here now?) As I mentioned … we would like to “move on” when we have resolved this Conspiracy Conundrum…. but the CENSORSHIP POSSE have a heavy presence in this building now … not just dressed up as MODERATORS.🤔 Did it ever occur to you that in addition to the reason for closure given by Fox, he may also not have wanted to finance it? Now just be quiet, you are going nowhere with this other than maybe getting banned for persistence. You don’t destroy an Archive and Forum that is v.healthy and has a rapidly growing 5,500+ Membership … if you are short of MONEY … you sell this powerful asset that has brilliant writers attached. Toreador … see my highlight in BOLD … why are you scared of this open enquiry? … why are you telling me to ‘shut up’ and threatening me with CENSORSHIP? …. and a possible ban. You don’t appear on the surface to have Moderator status … and have a new identity here? … Hmmm … maybe you are cut from the same cloth as “Fox” and “Vinny” … he has been exposed in a number of discussions on this new platform … maybe it’s your turn for the ‘spotlight’ interrogation? … care to share your old identity?🤫😎 … and your interests in shutting down certain investigations in this new space?🤔 Looks like there are a few spooks in this building that are ’lying’ in the shadows stirring 💩 .🤣 Looks very Le Carré here now … as revealing as the plot from the ‘Spy who came in from the Cold’ 🥶🥶😎 🤣

It's a good job you didn't see the recruitment advert for MI5 a couple of days ago. Not kidding, there really was an MI5 advert. I clicked on it and it led me to their recruitment page.

The idea you run a public forum , especially a political one ,and cant handle the views of various members on some topics so decide to close it seems over the top to me.
I dont agree with some peoples posts and what they say , however unpalatable , i will always defend their right to say it.
As you say , one for the old members to debate , and lets all move on with our new forum , and make it a place to enjoy.

It seems no one has considered that Fox may have been under serious pressure to close it, all sorts of agencies watch fora.

I just found it incredible that the owner could be so incensed by political views contrary to his own he shut the forum down.
