Another link that doesn't work!

Still eyes look coldly upon me,
Cold voices whisper and say --
'He is crazed with the spell of far Arabia,
They have stolen his wits away.'

Re: Interesting posts

I wrote to the MP representing the Isle of Wight ( my former residence in the UK) asking for his opinion on the situation in Yemen and does he support the supply of arms to the Saudi government which have been used to murder innocent civilians and decimate the country's infrastructure. And is he in agreement with the Saudi's blockading supplies coming into the country. Strangely I have never received a reply. Probably because the fellow is a new MP and is trying to do everything he can to fit in with his party's (Conservative) policies. I have just sent him another email demanding his reply and reminding him he was voted in to serve the people and not his own causes. The local Conservative association replaced one condescending w a n k e r with another!
What a loathsome career politics is!

Sometimes there is only one word or phrase that can describe a person or a situation.
In the instance that you have outlined, the word you used appears to be totally appropriate.
I experienced a similar censorship issue when I innocently used the name of the small fishing village that lies just north of Bureika in a post on this site.
With regards to politicians, head and brick wall come to mind.
