to newbies at openstreetmap.org, where such national polemic doesn't belong.

Are all Brits newbies, or are all Newbies Brits?

I didn't think so.

it was *politely* *suggested* you move this political discussion off the
world-wide english Newbies channel where it may scare away folks looking for
help, to the GB issues channel where at least any non-taxed listeners are
potentially interested. (I as a Bloody Yank am rather a fan of the *old* OS,
and would find this discussion of the New OS fascinating ... in the right
list...)

I will second the suggestion, rather *less* politely.
