Public Sticky notes
Since the dawn of the mass media, its practitioners have enjoyed a peculiar degree of immunity from the complaints of those they address. Understandably, they've taken advantage of this, growing lazy, sloppy, self-satisfied, self-indulgent, nepotistic and arrogant. Readers have sensed this, but until recently have been powerless to do anything about it. Now, the internet has given them a voice.

Problem seems to me that this was supposed to be a travel blog but was posted on a site that was uncomfortably close to CiF. Once alerted to its existence the sharks smelled blood and swam over to the backwater that is the travel section, having honed their skills (?) slagging off politicians and their cronies on the main CiF it was like shooting fish in a barrel.
It was just a very inappropriate forum.
