    There, obe, straight from the horse's mouth.

    This is what is meant when people say this is not the place for discussion.

    I'm sure if you post your comments in Discussion Time, you will have many answers.

    Me too. I miss Fred.
    But 'London' must be closed today as our 'Gary' is a 'researcher' and interested in the 'arts'. So instead, he starts a discussion about ??? including one of my posts from nearly 6 months ago!
    What fun!!

    Just out of curiosity and as seen as you have responded to my original reply you posted, albeit, nearly six months ago! Not wanting to be an anti-dedicated follower of fashion.

    Are you one of these decision makers, who is employed by the DWP?

    I know this is a wild assumption but you seem to definitely know about matters relating to IB.

    Did Fred get banned? I thought I hadn't seen him around recently.

    Obe I don't know stazi's status, but DWP professionals who have posted here in the past have been stopped from doing so by, presumably, the DWP.

    He got banned under the last name he was using but he could not post under his original name either so I think he is banned. Shame.

    Thats interesting, just a speculation but the DWP may not want any employee to disclose any inside information. I'm sure there are a few lurking around on here, oooh I dont mean to be offencive, I lurk too ;)
