Licensees have one day to speak out on licensing overhaul

I'm always happy to be open about relevant issues surrounding our industry. That is after all the key to any successful campaign.

If you had bothered to read the front page of our website you would have seen this:

'Fair Pint is the voice of tied tenants calling for an end to the exploitation of publicans through the tie'.

As I've already pointed out in an earlier post, err, no mention of licensing!

I did Robert; you just chose to ignore it. Typical I suppose.

Stephen, as I have already stated if you have a problem with another poster why do you drag me into it?Your assessment of Bobs posts or behaviour is just that your assessment. As to your assertion that you only respond to personal attacks this unfortunately is not borne out by your history. I haven't attacked you merely asked a very pertinent question to the topic.

With respect Stephen your feeling as to what another poster should or shouldn't do are of no consequence as we are all entitled to our opinions but not agreement to those opinions. That agreement has to be won by intelligent respectful debate and nurturing of concensus.

Stephen I always have been and still am a reasonable person and as such am able to examine both sides of a topic without bias.

As to the the desire of your colleagues to partake of debate that again I am afraid, is not supported by historical fact. I have never abused or made personalised attack on anyone but I am subjected to same by members of yours and other organisations who attack anyone who does not hold the same viewpoint as them.This appears more a desire to silence any dissent rather than the desire you proffer to debate points raised.

Perhaps if they adopted a more reasonable attitude progress could be made to seeking solutions rather than drawing battle lines.

Stephen I sincerely hope for fair pint's sake that you don't claim the likes of Michael Rounthwaite as one of yours.
