When apartheid South Africa had what they called "banning", I always thought that a banning said more about the powers that did it, than about those who were banned for saying things that powers didn't want to hear.

I may be reading too much into this but are you seriously comparing the moderators of ContractorUK with the Apartheid govenment of South Africa?
If so then you need helpStill Invoicing -
I was on Denny's side(until I read Administrator post anyway) - but most people seemed totally sick and tired of her.
All she had to do was listen a bit and let go. But oh no. She had to push things to the edge. And what for?Comment

I think the admins are correct, as contractors we should be able to sh1t bullets, be hard nosed, deal with agents, deal with HMRC, deal with stupid beaurocracy, deal with accountants, deal with anything.
Tough as **** we are.
So why cant we handle and ignore one slightly f*cked up bird who has slightly off-beam ideas and world-view.
Are the mods running this board for us or for their own convenience/egos ?

Is it still James and Brian? The Administrator doesnt sound like them - from what I remember.
Or is it just that dealing with CUK has ground them down?Comment
