Re: Hating the Brummie accent is a hate crime (I wish it was click-bait but it's not)

I sent message <l0f9kg...@mid.individual.net> to ulm this morning, and
no-one seems to be able to decide if it is acceptable or not. Since I
misspelt Dyfed-Powys Police in it, I would be happy for it to be rejected, and
I will take the rejection reason as a hint as to whether to resubmit it!

Sadly it would appear that it was approved a few minutes ago.

Ok! And I checked just before I posted.

And it was not intended to be defamatory; I meant exactly what I said about
Dyfed-Powys police being less likely than most police forces to do anything
underhand.

I've approved three batches of posts today at various times. If I'm not
sure about approving a post, but am similarly unsure about rejecting it,
I'll leave it on the pile for a second opinion from a different moderator.

Unfortunately, there was a significant delay in obtaining that second
opinion.

Apologies for the inconvenience, but I'd rather a post be delayed and
approved, (as happened here), than quickly rejected.

Regards

S.P.

Thanks. I was not complaining, just hoped to do the correction! And modify it
if necessary, it came over a bit (unintendedly) sarcastic when I read my sent
message copy!
