The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

Many of you may have experienced serious repression of free speech on the Radio One message boards.

Anything other than adulation of the dj's is forbidden, and dissent is ruthlessly crushed.

The "open and democratic" BBC that we fund is clearly operating it's own political agenda

In response to this we call for a total boycott of the radio one boards and chat rooms until the matter is officially resolved with the moderators, moderators are made accountable and our freedom of expression is assured.

The moderators have been invited to engage in a dialogue on this issue but have not been forthcoming.

We must show our resistance.

IN SOLIDARITY!

hardly anyone, last time i checked they were a poor layout, and not as good as these.
i know bob is sometimes in there, but usually to wind people up. i think this is the case for most of the small amount of our members whom use the message boards at the BBC

well im sure if you read the T&C of the message board, you agree somwhere along th line that they can edi whatever they want, so this whole "boycotting sue to lack of free speech" is total balls
