I'm very sorry, but I've had to close the comments box on my posts about the Vlaams Blok. I reluctantly took the decision when they topped 150: I simply don't have the time (or inclination, for that matter) to look at every one and determine if it's libellous - and a large proportion were.

I apologise to the many people who posted entirely sensible comments both agreeing and disagreeing with my article for what is now a wasted effort on their part, but - this seems to be true across the blogosphere - those who are incapable of engaging in rational debate have ruined the efforts of those who would like to have a sensible discussion.

And please don't put comments about this on other posts; I'll simply close all the comments boxes if you do.
