Quite right.
By bleating on about the need to comply with restrictions that he expressly acknowledges are nonsensical, he exposes himself as a petty-minded pompous fool.

It seems Nick Ardley has made an enemy of someone. He is claiming to have received a threat to burn his boat.
Shock at threat to burn local author’s boat
Am I surprised? No. He certainly has made no friends from his actions. However, I do think threatening to burn his boat is wrong. A cold shoulder wherever he went would have been quite suitable.

I think that I have stumbled into Erewhon, where people are to be admired for breaking or stretching the Law and those who want it observed are condemned.

Probably just empty words. ... will be very surprised if the boat is actually burnt.
If it does happen, certainly the arsonist should be prosecuted. Wilful property damage is almost as bad as violence, and cannot be condoned,
In any case, Ardley certainly deserves the cold shoulder.

After seeing the scenes yesterday at the beeches and Liverpool fans celebrating and the brixton problems and black lives protests/riots.
Forget the politics just use common sense and be socially aware.

Section 5 of the Public Order Act (1986) suggests that line has been crossed already.
That slow hand-clap being bandied about needs to find a new home.

IMHO .
Give it 6 months and it will all be back to normal if the past 2000 years is anything to go by.
The anchoring spat will fade into the background all the resolutions to change the world will quickly be forgotton.
I will go back to moaning about Raggies getting in the way and they will complain about my wash.
Ps Stangate was very busy.
Lots of boats at anchor....................and all of us were thinking of course about those at work so here is a brief description....
30C and a glorious cool wind .Sky and water was blue.
Best day out for long time.
