    As the person, who proposed a current affairs forum, I apologise. This is nothing like I meant.

    "There has been a lot of discussion about the closing of threads in AH & moving them to Politics.

    Some people are saying that AH is losing it's purpose as lots of current affairs items get posted there.

    So how about a current affairs section in AH ? The Mods could easily move the rape, 8th amendment, etc threads to the Current Affairs section."

    How is this different to your idea?

    It's hidden away & not part of AH

    I missed the announcement. Is it a closed shop like the Politics one?

    Once the nasal know-alls found it then it was only a matter of time we would too.

    Hopefully not but it won't achieve the original objective of freeing up After Hours for lighthearted discussion.

    Right, looks like we’re off to a great start here. In order to keep heads cool, I’m going to close this thread and ask that all feedback is directed into the Feedback forum.

    Thanks
