Hi DJPThe problem may also be the way in which members express themselves as well as the interpretation. Without rehashing old arguments I did point out to Matt that the wording of his message about the Labour Party retweet did read exactly like a dictact rather than an opinion. To be exact "this is a breach of the hostility clause and should be removed" as opposed to "this could be a breach of the hostility clause and you might consider removing it". Another difficulty is that with some of the postings on here, it is difficult at times to distinguish between what is a personal opinion of an Internet a committee member, and what is the view of the Internet committee.
March 10, 2016 at 11:26 pm #116276DJPParticipantGenerally I'd say the internet committee would only be speaking as the internet committee in response to a message sent to the email address, or in communications sent to the EC or other branches. So seldom on this forum, unless repeating a communication made elsewhere.The way to contact committees is through the email aliases listed in the files section if Spintcom, in case you didn't know..
March 10, 2016 at 11:28 pm #116277Bijou DrainsParticipantI'll make a note of that. And treat opinions expressed by IC members as just that, individual opinions. Thanks for your help

I am finding it difficult to believe that there is any justification for one member censoring and silencing another member. Especially in the light of the fact that the two members are involved in a dispute on moderation expressed in a motion in the NERB branch. This censorship prevents cde Maratty from speaking on his resolution and embarasses and brings the party into disrepute.He was clearly remove for criticising and exposing the internet committee. Well you can run but you can't hide

In particular if this account indeed was "doing goodwork for socialism" how come these concerns were raised and addressed by the EC regarding accountability and authorisation by the branch?This is from the Report from the Internet Committee (1st May 2016)."The @World_Socialism Twitter account continues to occasionally post or re-tweet items which without comment could be construed as supporting other parties and movements. Some confusion exists between two very simmilarly named accounts [@WorldSocialism and @World_Socialism]. It is unclear just who “owns” the accounts. The committee finds the branch unresponsive to their enquiries." The EC rejects the accusation that the Internet Committee has exceeded its Terms of Reference and resolves to take no further action on this matter.” With regard to the Twitter account @WorldSocialism the EC also resolve:(1) To ask NERB to confirm whether @World_Socialism is their Twitter account, and if so, what arrangements they have made to ensure it is under editorial control. A reply is requested no later than the date of the next EC meeting (4th June 2016)(2) In the absence of any satisfactory reply the next EC meeting will consider further:(a) authorising the Internet Committee to take action as suggested in their Report of 26th March 2016,(b) whether any further action is required in respect of the actions of individual Party members.It seems you are determined to continue sowing seeds of distraction and confusion so the these two important issues of accountability and authorisation are not addressed under the party rules. In short, you are deliberately avoiding the democratic decision making process as set out by Conference and the membership.

I'v only just started to take an interest I am only passing information on. The account looks fine to me as do the videos. Why stamp on these iniatives by Vin? I find such behaviour disturbing

For crying out loud! Linda, as far as I can tell, is publishing a statement on behalf of Vin who is unable to publish it here himself; how can that be construed as operating two accounts? BTW, there isn't a #168 or #169 on this thread…. yet.

All you needed to do was to edit the post to make it clear you were posting the statement on behalf of Vin. That would suffice and keep the post within the rules.
