This eventually culminated in the separate politics board and there was a time when I thought that there would be other separate boards and this would just be for football.

This never happened but we are still stuck rather pointlessly with a separate politics board but every other subject under the sun on this one!!

Mike knows my feelings on this but my occasional grumble about the pointlessness and stupidity of this fall on deaf ears.
at the time all the politics boards descended to the same arguments.

now it seems to be a haven for weird conspiracy theories half the time
