I've known Mozaz since the anti-poll tax movement, anyone
who has been politically active for any amount of time in
Sheffield knows Mozaz. Every campaign that I have been
involved with and that he has also been involved with has
spent a lot of time discussing Mozaz and his views and
behaviour and his effect on campaigns and even some
campaigns he hasn't been involved with have spent time
discussing what to do in case he did express an interest
in being involved...

I don't believe we could ever reach a consensus on banning
Mozaz from the site so I don't think there much point in
the discussion, but if people really feel that there is a
important need to have a long discussion about banning
Mozaz from Indymedia, then fine, lets do it, but
personally I can think of an awful lot of things I'd
rather be doing...
