Western, such a comment 10 or 15 years ago would have seemed barking mad! Now? Maybe just a little too close to accurately predicting the future. What price a Ministry of Propaganda? Or is that DGMC by another name? Was Alistait Campbell our first ever Propaganda Minister?!!

What price a Ministry of Propaganda. Just check your tax bill mate. That's how much.

I am puzzled. ARRSE does not seem to have lost the majority of its posters since the DIN was imposed. I wonder what the site traffic is like?

Does this mean the DIN is being ignored?

I had a chat with my father recently, who is still an MoD civil servant, he didn't stop to phone a spin doctor before sounding off at length about the disgraceful L/Bdr Parkinson case, the suppression of statistics concerning those wounded in action etc.

I don't believe the DIN is worth the paper it is printed on.

Clearly any post bearing my name which is in contravention of the honoured DIN has been concocted by my wife using my log in without my permission! None of what she posts has been gleaned from conversations with me, as I never, ever discuss defence. Let me be quite clear on this!

But she tells me that you talk an awful lot in your sleep...

I should be careful if I were you - DGMC might accuse you of starting a smear campaign...

Anyone for a dirty protest?

**MrPVRd** · 28-08-2007, 21:54

Is it a better wipe than that shiny stuff they used to have? Particularly for those hard-to-reach creases and for polishing the old haemorrhoids....
