[…] had originally intended to add further thoughts to this post once the conversation I’d started with Iain had come to an end but given the length of time […]

Maybe he’s managed to find a bucket big enough to hide in. He hasn’t answered the questions and doesn’t seem to want to continue the conversation any longer.

Is there a bucket big enough for the author?

Ah, the ironies of Iain Dale. Someone should write a book about them.

I’ve just seen his reply. He’s ’stooped so low’ as to hit me with the ‘obsessive’ tag. Again.

How often does he expect to get away with dodging a question on multiple occasions and then labelling a persistent opponent as obsessive?

Also, regarding his claims to have addressed the Flickr matter to the best of his ability, I know he’s keen on revising blog history, but he’s missed a couple of images clearly watermarked ‘backingblair.co.uk’… and he has not yet addressed the images hosted on his weblog.

Tim, that really was a beauty.

I’m back in the “ignore” zone at the moment. I’ve just submitted another comment challenging him on his claim that your response contained vitriol and pointing out that his rules mean I can’t provide the evidence which proves that it was unjustified.

I might get the “I can’t win” gambit out of him yet as he seeks to avoid the issues yet again.

Matt W, thank you. Wordpress really is the cat’s whiskers.

Belated congratulations on the move.

Go Wordpress.

I enjoyed his “What?! How dare you insult me?” whopper more than anything else. Keep a sharp eye out for the “I can’t win!” victim gambit that neatly sidesteps the fact that Iain created this tangled web himself.
