Not at all surprised at this judges decision .

When will they wake up and listen to public opinion ??
The rot, for that is what name suppression truly is, was cemented into place by the Criminal Procedure Act 2011 which states will be granted only in cases where publication would probably:
(a) cause extreme hardship to the person charged with, or
convicted of, or acquitted of the offence, or any person
connected with that person; or
(b) cast suspicion on another person that may cause undue
hardship to that person; or
(c) cause undue hardship to any victim of the offence; or
(d) create a real risk of prejudice to a fair trial; or
(e) endanger the safety of any person; or
(f) lead to the identification of another person whose name is
suppressed by order or by law; or
(g) prejudice the maintenance of the law, including the
prevention, investigation, and detection of offences; or
(h) prejudice the security or defence of New Zealand.
It is (d) that defence lawyers have seized on & by their successes to date have created precedents that nearly guarantee suppression orders even where they are neither justified nor needed.
Time for another rewrite of the Act even if its only purpose is to reset the clock on the tradition of legal precedent which is currently being tortured by the legal profession.

TR. If you haven’t seen the excuse for imprisoned him watch it.
I cannot remember exactly when I first heard of the Rotherham rape gangs but I suspect it was well over 15 years ago. The denial, cover up and persecution of the Tommy Robinson’s of this world has continued ever since – Tommy is back in jail right now.
If you are now really that aware of what has been happening go to the Free Tommy post above and just follow the various threads on that. The knowledge and cover ups have been exposed – and then buried – ever since.
England/Britain is so far gone there will never be a way back.
Prince Andrew gets a lot of bad press for being involved with Epstein but it should be pointed out that his “victims” would have been of legal age in just about every country other than the USA.
Meanwhile because of “sensitivities” the sexual abuse of pre adolescent kids by Muslims is quietly swept under the carpet & ignored by the compliant scum of the MSM.
AFAIR Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones used to take Mandy Smith over to France when she was 15 to shag. legal age of consent 16 in England.
He eventually married her but it did not last. Quelle surprise.
Speaking of France. Prince Philip used to go to France to shag the prostitutes there because they could keep quiet.
The English prossies couldn’t keep their gob shut.This was bad for their health. National security and all!!
Facts.
————————————————
The US is all over the show with consent.
It was only in the latter 1990s things got tidied up.
Prior to that age of consent was 13 in 4 or more states, 14 in others, 15 in others.
In fact the age of consent for a person ‘close in age’ is 13 in 11 states – mostly northern states as well
eg New Jersey; Minnesota, Connecticut New Hampshire
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_consent_in_the_United_States
Small adjustments to these laws occurred after 1920. The last two states to raise their age of general consent from under 16 to 16 or higher were Georgia, which raised the age of consent from 14 to 16 in 1995,[107] and Hawaii, which changed it from 14 to 16 in 2001
Until the late 20th century many states had provisions requiring that the teenage girl must be of “chaste character” in order for the sexual conduct to be considered criminal.
In 1998, Mississippi became the last state to remove the chastity provision from its code
———————
and in fact all this is worthless when you consider Pizza parties and the fact that child sex is not frowned upon in the USA elite;
but making a movie like Sound of Freedom is !!!
Nor of course in the Catholic and some other churches.
The muzzies are not alone here.
Age of consent is mostly academic tut tutting
and we know how useless academics are!!!
lefty traitors
“…his “victims” would have been of legal age in just about every country other than the USA.”
So, still illegal in US jurisdiction then?
As I recall the age of consent in most states of the USA is eighteen. Somewhat unrealistic but it was introduced to give girls a chance of obtaining an education instead of being married off at the first sign of puberty such as the norm in the shitholes of the ME.
I’m sure you’d have been ecstatic for your practically legal 17 year old daughter to get railed by Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton at a secluded island retreat, then.
“…instead of being married off at the first sign of puberty such as the norm in the shitholes of the ME.”
Do you mean the practice that predominated in the West for thousands of years as well until a little over 100 years ago?
Maybe our birth rates in the West wouldn’t be in the toilet (one pretext for us “needing” replacement third world immigration in the first place) if we didn’t have an obsession with women getting an “education” in how to make spreadsheets and Power Points, and often sleeping around while they do so, during their most fertile years, then having one child, perhaps two in their 30s or 40s?
thought the muslims preferred little boys?
maybe once they enter a country illegaly their preference changes but in their home countries they often rape young boys and other men, man love tuesday is a thing. youll see on some vids in muslim countries of say truck drivers with a young male passenger, youd naturally think thats their son or something but nope 90% of the time thats their fucktoy.
they all need to suicide bomb themselves, the world would be a better place if they all went to meet allah.
Apparently young Indian girls (Seiks, etc) are schooled by their parents to avoid Paki men and their known grooming techniques.
The pakis dont usually do much grooming
it is straight in
gang rape being normal
The UK stuff has been an exception.
———-
Pakistan, where they imprison or assassinate former PMs, does not see punishment for rape as of much consequence.
——————-
and the Indian men are no better
They are rapey bad.
ask white women who travel in India
Those 1980s British made films about India were crap .
Avoiding facts.
In fact, under Modi, there has been the death sentence applied. And not like the US with 20 years on death row and multiple appeals.
Death sentence means it.
Good call, Modi.
Some of it in India is disgusting.
———————————————–
2018….
India’s Cabinet has approved the introduction of the death penalty for those who rape children, amid uproar over a series of high-profile cases.
The change to the country’s penal code applies to those convicted of raping a child under the age of 12.
There have been nationwide protests in recent weeks over the gang rape and murder of an eight-year-old girl.
The government has come under fire for not doing enough to prevent sexual-assault cases, many involving children.
Nearly 19,000 cases were registered in India in 2016 – more than 50 each day.
——————-
Seems bad but the NZ Abuse in Care grooming/S.A inquiry thingy was a useless whitewash.
There would have been that many Sex Abuse cases in NZ or more in Govt and religious institutions
50 a day. No. likely more. in the 1960s, 1970s
around the country
This is a sad and sick record and the chance to adders it was blown.
Deliberately.
Too many institutions would fall.
and the pricks that perpetrated these, for any child under 15 should (have) get the immediate death sentence.
Including priests and religious.
Out the back of the court room, shoot em on sight.
Mass grave.
Just one headstone
“here lies some rapey bastards that got what they deserved. No less. Feel no pity for them.
They saw, they came, they died”
Pederasty & paedophilia seem to become normalised in societies dominated by religious mores. Instance Islamists’ preference for little girls as fucktoys which even spills over into buggering boys as in the Afghani practise of Bacha bazi in which men enslave adolescent boys for entertainment and/or sexual abuse. Then there are the predatory Catholic priests who screw up the lives & bottoms of the wretched boys unfortunate enough to be born into the faith.
The religious arseholes share a common denominator where a professed respect for females hides an ingrained practise of treating them as second class humans who must be degraded & treated worse than breeding livestock.
“Pederasty & paedophilia seem to become normalised in societies dominated by religious mores.”
Do you mean like in our avowedly “secular humanist” society where we have Drag Queen Story Hour, and teachers and other adults encourage our kids to explore their homosexual curiosity under the tutelage of those teachers and other adults?
If you fail to acknowledge how “teachers and other adults encourage our kids to explore their homosexual curiosity under the tutelage of those teachers and other adults” plays out over the altar table at your local Catholic church then you have been brainwashed beyond help.
We would live better lives if men acted as real men, women as real women & people ignored gods as childhood fantasies as they do with the Tooth Fairy.
As I’ve told you before, the issue is not about Christianity it is about gay pedos in the Christian churches. Gay pedophilia has nothing to do with church doctrine, just as it has nothing to do with Boy Scout or boy’s sports team doctrine. It’s about access to boys, full stop, and as I have demonstrated, your atheist fellow travelers are as guilty as any religious pedo, very likely more so given the secular attitudes of modernity.
……”Gay pedophilia has nothing to do with church doctrine”……
But modern church doctrine is to cover up, to move the boy botherer to another parish or do anything rather than face up to reality. By neglect & the cowardice of the church the practise is sustained if not encouraged.
Before you embarrass yourself further may I suggest that you beg, buy, borrow or steal a copy of Dyan Elliott’s excellent book entitled The Corrupter of Boys, Sodomy, Scandal, and the Medieval Clergy. In it she slays the argument that the church clergy’s abuse of boys is a relatively recent phenomenon. In fact it is endemic & she traces it back to about the Third Century AD.
“In it she slays the argument that the church clergy’s abuse of boys is a relatively recent phenomenon. In fact it is endemic & she traces it back to about the Third Century AD.”
Don’t let your hatred of Christians blind you to the extent that you seem indifferent to those of your own atheistic creed doing exactly the same thing for the same reasons.
Gay men, whether religious or not, abusing boys goes back much further than the 200s AD. In fact, it long predates the advent of the Catholic Church. QED.
Should, but probably won’t as the Muslims now have too much voting power.
Poms might desert the place and finish up out here.
Lesson for NZ and Aussie and America which are well down the track.
It’s only 7 % of the uk population
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1875153589318115775?s=46&t=FuvE5e-uq9dUbHPLKMbm2Q
NZ and Aussie never colonised places.
In fact we are such bleeding hearts we help out ‘independent ‘ nations massively like Polynesia and Melanesia.
AU does massive amounts for PNG despite its ‘independence’.
Vanuatu was jointly administered by France and UK until they got ‘independence’ in 1980 and are totally dependent on AU despite their dodgy banking revenue.
Pathetic.
If Cook Is. get ‘independence’ NZ will still pay what we pay now, possibly more.
So NZ and AU help out.
England went around the world and conquered and colonised. They were in India for 300 years and exploited the shit out of the place .
Same with the so called West Indies or Caribbean. They had their government endorsed pirates attacking the Spanish and French just like it was a franchise.
They brought in the African slaves to work the sugar fields for hundreds of years. (like the Spanish and French)
There were waaay more slaves in the Caribbean than in the whole USA.
The English ended slavery !!
Eat my ass.
It was the industrial revolution that ended slavery with mechanisation. Not any Poms.
They made a virtue of of necessity.
The Poms conquered these places , then allowed some of them to come in to rebuild after the destruction of WW2 – that England willingly joined into and expanded- so it is all their doing.
England was not even attacked and would not have been by the Austrian . But they would have been weakened and isolated.
—————
We dont want refugees from England bringing their indolence and lazy fucker, whiny pom ways here
Just as Florida and Texas should not want California cunts on their turf .
England welcomed the Pakis back in the 1950s
Let them eat their own shit.
Meantime they deported their own white youth; in many cases while the parents were alive; out to Canada and Australia
See the 2010 movies ‘Oranges and Sunshine’ from the 1994 book.
The English Govt then lied. As usual.
…Deported children were promised “oranges and sunshine” but they instead got hard labour and life in institutions such as Keaney College in Bindoon, Western Australia. Many were given to the Congregation of Christian Brothers, where they suffered physical and sexual abuse at the hands of the brothers….
This was done under Saint, Lord Winston Spencer fucking Churchill, the great 💩💩
NZ and AU were colonised by many Scots and Irish escaping the tyranny of the English upper crust (fuckwits basically )
And by lower class poms for the same reason.
Because they fucked up does not mean we have to endure them again.
…..”We dont want refugees from England bringing their indolence and lazy fucker, whiny pom ways here “…..
In spades! The Pommie garbage that washed up on NZ shores in the 1950s consisting of fourth grade tradesmen & union stirrers. The soap dodging scum bloody near fucked this country with their stop works & strikes.
Never again!
”We dont want refugees from England bringing their indolence and lazy fucker, whiny pom ways here “
How about hard-working, high-IQ East Asians (and Indians)?
Bonus: they don’t do “white guilt.”
If I were a Maori radical, I would be very worried.

Thanks Webrat as well worth at least a quick skim read.. and now I do not need to post a series of links 🙂 as it is great summation in that article.
Just a few quotes from that article showing the line of the rot goes to the very top now.
———————————————————–
Lord Talbot : @Lord_Talbot64
Meet Jess Phillips,[appointed a Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the Home Office]
which she said was with responsibility for safeguarding and violence against women and girls. she is the safeguarding minister.
She has refused an inquiry into muslim grooming gangs.
Can someone tell her she is supposed to be safeguarding children not the gangs.
—————————————————————
Elon Musk
Who is the boss of Jess Phillips right now? Keir Stamer.
The real reason she’s refusing to investigate the rape gangs is that it would obviously lead to the blaming of Keir Stamer (head of the CPS at the time).
—————————————————————–
In the UK, serious crimes such as rape require the Crown Prosecution Service’s approval for the police to charge suspects.
Who was the head of the CPS when rape gangs were allowed to exploit young girls without facing justice?
Keir Starmer, 2008 -2013

It now falls into place, even more logically about the Labour Government’s stance & then clampdown about the Stockport murders and why the general public erupted in protest.

Yeah and the useless Toffs and Torys like Cameron, Boris Johnson – five Tory PMs in 14 years
Did Nothing.
They are complaint
100%
Totally agree howitis,
They would have known too, which is even worse, for their brand of politics.
Even the Reform Party seems to have problems in not recognizing anything about Tommy Robinson & his supporters.
Where many of the Reform Party members are seriously considering choosing UKIP.
That really splinters that side of politics. particularly in a FPP election system.
Elon Musk in siding with TR, & personally knowing N. Farage, & possibly $ donations to Reform Party may effect a reconsideration.
Though I do not like that it is money influence, blowing whatever supposed principles out of the water.

The so-far unasked question (At least by the USMSM) is who ‘turned’ these guys from very patriotic Americans to suicidical anti-American muslim terrorists.
Personal experience (No details) indicates that the average service person is extremely conservative and very nationalistic, and yet these ones weren’t.
Why (And who was the ‘mole’ at Fort Bragg)?
The investigations will stop when the stench of a Democrat false flag operation can no longer be ignored.
A nice unaccountable money flow from Whanau Ora to Waipareira Trust
Ngarewa-Packer’s article as plainly lobbying for the Waipareira Trust, which he described in a column as “Te Pāti Māori’s largest single donor”. ….
…… “a tacit acknowledgment of the overly close relationship between Te Pāti Māori and the Whānau Ora Commissioning Agency
https://www.bassettbrashandhide.com/post/graham-adams-storm-clouds-gather-over-tamihere-s-fiefdom
No open tenders by Whanau Ora for those that went John Tamahere’s trust.
Even the reasons for putting up that sort of money is totally unaccountable, unmeasurable, very questionable, if not nebulous goals & targets.
All these new maori names stink & reek of high corruption through out all government offices, as they bend the knee in complicity & cover up.
Simpleton
Good luck to anyone trying to trace where the money went, who saw it as it went by, who handled it, and where it eventually ended-up.
Maori and money have a ‘Hear nothing, see nothing, know nothing’ relationship.
we could give iwi/radical maori everything they ever wanted…. but the greedy cunts would still ask what we’re gunna give them tommorow.
And poor Maori would still be poor. The radicals aren’t in it for the betterment of all Maori.
That and the fact that a lot of them aren’t exactly self-starters.
Give a man his unearned wants and you will weaken him. He will become dysfunctional and develop a strong sense of entitlement.

Makes some sense when one gets older.
Taxing them is essentially double-dipping—taxing money that was already taxed when it was earned.
This practice undermines the principle of fair taxation and places unnecessary financial strain on seniors.
https://politicalactionalerts.com/how-tax-exemption-for-seniors-can-boost-the-economy/
Sort of follows howitis comment below on the double dipping effect.
https://ysb.co.nz/have-your-say-257/#comment-427243
I know as paying back the capital money on what you borrowed attracted a 50% tax rate, & whilst trying to stay under the 66% tax rate.
So you earned that money to pay that tax owed, which also attracted that tax again on that money to pay the tax, ad infinitum.
I know in some cases back then, that some just bit the bullet to make the capital payment & paid tremendous tax monies for a few years after. Funnily enough reborrowing enough to pay the provisional & terminal taxes, & so the loop continued.
Sure if one can postpone, to interest % only & let inflation devalue what you will pay back later, but who really knows?
Many had no choice, as for some reason the money had to be paid back.
Accountants were in their element, but often their clients were guinea pigs when the next law to close loop-holes was pushed through.
I know you are right about farmers paying for new gadgets, tractors, & many times it is foolish.
I recall when Muldoon had special depreciation rates, allowances; but it entrapped them into that increased capital, that had to be taxxed at that high rate.
Muldoon with in 3 years had made that allowance
back plus some.
Eat your heart out & dig deeper. We poor old retired cockies need our pocket money. 🙂
Pull yourself up by the bootstraps, Boomer, instead of leeching off the productive members of society. This is the entitled beneficiary attitude destroying society. The personal responsibility of past ages seems to be a dying concept, doesn’t it?
Or pay for blog upgrades😂😂🤩

Tommy grew up in Luton watching the lslamists take control while two-tier policing looked the other way.
You can understand why the Indians despise them.
Along with many others.
Of course there is well documented lines of saudi’s and others traipsing off to other countries to essentially do the same thing. Then of course there are the children of the Pope and their behavoir.
The multiple gang rapists are half the equation the other half are those in powerful positions there failing to protect the vulnerable victims but instead using a conspiracy of silence to protect each other.

“…presidents cannot control the US government. In order to do so, you would need to fundamentally overhaul and reorganize the government itself, and that would require a kind of revolutionary party apparatus, a separatist reform movement that would restaff, reorganise, and completely overhaul the government as it is structured today.”

Trump has talked about getting rid of income tax in the US. This would appear to be behind his thinking on the issue.
https://t.me/thewhiterosenz/197707/296496
Income tax is stupid.
It is lazy and penalises both the productive and those who save and invest.
Duh.
I understand from reading treasury papers in 2009 that Blinglish wanted the GST moved to 17.5 %
This was to equal to the modal average income tax rate of 17.5%
So whether to spend or save was made neutral.
The Great Traitor John keys stopped this
So we got 15% GST.
—————————————
We have double taxation.
Earn say $80,000 a year. Pay out tax and expenses of $70k
Save $ 10,000 in a year .
put it in the bank , diligently, and preparing for spending from saving, not debt, or for later times use .
Earn say 5% interest on the $10,000 saved
$500 income. This is taxed. But you were fully taxed when you earned the $80k and were diligent enough to save $10k .
it gets worse. You reinvest the $500 interest and get taxed on the 5% interest .
And in year 2, the original diligently saved $10k is still taxed
and you get taxed for working and not being a benefit taker.
Very stupid. Counter productive.
————————-
Solution.
Have a flat 25% consumption tax.
No capital gains (very flakey nonsense)
No gift duty
no death duty
no income tax or tax on investments
just tax consumption.
on all consumption as NZ has now. One rate.
Govt must live within those means
If they cant, they hand in their warrant to the GG.
That’s the theory.
We are dealing with politicians and they have no principles.
None at all.
and they lie, snivel , distort and are of poor character; just above that of a churnalist.
And politicians are useless at money management .
We see this with the current notional-led lot.
The English litt girly has increased govt expenditure for 2025 by 17% while skiting about reducing inflation below 3%.
What a moron.
…and inducing a recession where the tax take is reduced and benefit spend increases .
The girly dont really understand even ECON 101.
It is Fonterror economics from the critter Spierings who ran the place into the ground.
Rinse and repeat.
That was English litt girly’s only econ education and work in a fantasy world .
Disgusting!
What is the downside of a polarizing society where the hard-workers get richer but the lazy become poorer?
What happens when agitators encourage the poor to “rise up against the bourgeois”? (Perhaps keep a better eye on the agitators and buy them off…)
ACT has always suggested 25% GST No exceptions and RD was close to getting there until Lange found the Pope.
The other alternative is a Transaction Tax at 3% on all transactions. Catches everything.
We sure need to change some things.
Better still stop the govt. spending on nice to haves, more user pays, stop sending money offshore, invest in ourselves.
Lots of better options than we currently use.
It is that tariffs can be set up as a form of GST.
If properly done, whether to cover all imports, and just what % is charged. it may be feasible as an alternative tax revenue.
So Keep It Simple, so it may work.’
How workable it is in the long term remains to be seen.
Some call that tariff way Trump’onomics
https://www.investopedia.com/trumpenomics-definition-8419795
This shows that it seems to be applied haphazardly.
Still the steel tariffs made China devalue its renminbi, so although the tariffs collected some money, the devaluation did not mean the tariff cost the American consumer more.
So no price rise to the American consumer.
I am not sure, as yet it is to play with a straight bat at this stage, and get past the squeals from the traditionalist economics.
So just to be clear…
Can I ask….
Given Tariana Turia is half Yankee/USA from her father being a US Marine; here in ww2;
will they be inviting the US side of the family to the Marae for commemorations.
Just askin’, OK !
Tariana Turia cannot be “Maori,” only “part-Maori.”
Will Billy Biden give her some award for been 50 percent American? So she was a half cast, but identified as maori, because it pays more!
That’s what happens when you send your men overseas and invite others in to take their place. Sadly the condom broke.
By all reports wasn’t the only one.
Had a look at the hill as has been a bit nippy!
Cap of cloud on the top and a light dusting of snow under it!
Blowing a good southerly in the Waikato. Must be even worse further south.

But at least it’s NOT raining, and because it hasn’t rained since 0700 this morning, should someone tell NIWA so that they can declare a drought?
They havve form in such matters…
A blonde woman was driving along the highway, about two hours outside San Diego, when she saw a man waving her down. His truck was parked on the shoulder, clearly broken down.
As she rolled down her window, the man approached and asked, “Are you headed to San Diego?”
“Sure am,” she replied.
“Great! I don’t need a ride for myself—I’ll be stuck here fixing my truck for hours. But I’ve got two chimpanzees in the back, and they need to get to the San Diego Zoo. They’re already stressed, and I don’t want to keep them waiting. Could you take them for me? I’ll pay you $200 for the trouble.”
The blonde thought for a moment and said, “Sure, I’d be happy to help.”
The man carefully loaded the chimpanzees into the back seat of her car, strapped them in with seat belts, and handed her the cash. Off she went, heading toward the zoo.
About five hours later, the man’s truck was finally fixed, and he was driving through downtown San Diego when he spotted a scene that made his jaw drop.
There was the blonde, walking down the street hand-in-hand with the two chimps. A huge crowd had gathered, laughing and snapping photos.
He slammed on the brakes, jumped out of his truck, and ran over to her. “What are you doing?” he yelled. “I gave you $200 to take those chimpanzees to the zoo!”
“I did!” she said, smiling. “But we had money left over, so now we’re going to Sea World!”
Interesting – NEVER KNEW WE HAD IT SO GOOD.

Where’s a dictionary when you need one..?
Driving an EV shows women that you’re socially responsible & environmentally conscious.
It also indicates that you will be completely unable to give them an orgasm.
Just moisten the women, then place the jumper leads from the ev.
Nudenut, Willis and all politicians should be made to look at this

Grooming Gangs: Martin Daubney Loses Composure Live On Air At Scandal As London Protest PLANNED
‘We want to make it unable to ignore anymore. We will stand together.’
A GB News guest details how people can get involved in the ‘Million Women March’ on the 17 February at 12pm in protest at failures of the grooming gang scandal.
It is more than 1 town as mentioned, and in the X link there is many more.
Sam Bidwell :
You want some examples of British towns scarred by migrant sex abuse gangs?
[a list of 20 towns]
That’s just off the top of my head. I’m sure that others will be able to suggest additional examples for you. Happy now?

Worth while to click through “show more” to then see how others try to blind, mislead many others.
As seen here, the numbers, the push back of facts is emerging.
But the truth is now building up.
X has a search function, but I am not a twitter X member at this stage.
I have really noticed how google search suppresses certain issues that twitter has been active in.
Like how I searched for the London rally in support of TR on 1st February 2025. = Nothing
Then it was mentioned to use X search for the 17th Feb London Women’s rally but nothing again on a google “All” search.
You just love the Irish lilt

TR on how hard it is having done two months in soIitary confinement for the civil offence of showing his film. He still has six months to endure. This is hard to watch. The ‘G’ are out to break his spirit and they’ve just sent TR an 81k pound statement to pay.

It should be.

Yes and they haven’t been pouring a shitliad of money into the natives like us. We must be getting close to 50% to the natives and most to John Tamihere!
Mystery & intrigue as the Herald reports that a “a sooty carbon particle” has been released into the harbour at New Plymouth. We await confirmation that our esteemed correspondent has not suffered a premature cremation. 🙂

This was posted in the wrong place (Sorry Viking, but it wasn’t for you), but it would appear that there is no way to physically remove or delete it – or if there is, I’ve so far not found it.
Does anyone know how it’s done; How you remove/ delete an entire ‘Reply’ post when it’s in the wrong place and is unwanted ?
Thanks.
At the top where one puts a new comment “Join the Discussion”.
Just below that is Tally of “Comments”
It is the smaller print size of the Tally of Comments..
Then along side is a little avatar ‘guy holding a cog’.
Hover your cursor over it.
A pop-up box occurs with “My content & settings” with some of your previous comments.
Click it & then a drop down box happens. where you may have to click on “activities” which will then show your previous & that last comment.
A rubbish is shown, hover the cursor over it, and when it says “Delete” you should be able to do so.
Any way another avenue for you to explore.
I still can not get out of habit yet of ‘back’ clicking, instead of speed scroll back to the top;- but at least am aware I am the one in error.
Although Ed’s blog must be rising in the sheer number of clicks, back, forwards, refresh, etc… as we find our way. 😉
To speed scroll back to the top click on the red and white arrow in the bottom right of every page
