As usual, the politicians (Alan Johnson in this case) are concentrating on a total irrelevance. The button he is braying for Facebook to add would presumably have made knack all difference in the case of the tragically murdered girl as she obvoiusly didn't suspect.

A few SN sites (bebo & myspace???) have a button to report predatory behaviour.Originally posted by chef View Post
Johnson (the *****) wants this button on all facebook posts.
1) Wouldn't have worked in this particular case (girl killed by peado after a facebook grooming).
2) There is already a "report this" button in facebook, just not the one Johnson is "promoting" (any conflict of interest there? It's not his mate who runs the other scheme is it?)."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

I would like to see an online button that fired a boxing glove into the face of Johnston everytime it was pressed.
Then anytime he tried to blame someone else for his department's mistakes we would know what to do.Comment

It must have the Family Fortunes aah ah sound effect though.Comment

There would be some legal fallout from that. Certain posters would go so flouncy that they'd probably break their keyboards and want to sue CUK.Originally posted by Clippy View PostCan we have a similar button on CUK?

It's available if you want it. Or you could flounce."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment
