Who in the world would you most like to 502?

Eddie Mair | 09:50 UK time, Thursday, 15 November 2007

As we struggle to make comments and get 502 error messages...I was wondering whether we could compile a list of people who you'd like to 502.

Do you know what I mean?

    Fifi @ 2, Hear, hear! Heartily seconded, but I'm not sure you go quite far enough.

    How about just making that every politician who tells an obvious lie in public? That covers your examples, and adds in anyone who produces a broadcast statement in which she says both 'this contingency *may* happen' and 'this contingency *will* happen' in more-or-less the same breath, and apparently doesn't expect anyone to notice that the certain 'will' and the possible 'may' are *not the same thing*?

    Bit obvious, really - whoever decided on this system that gets the 502, and whoever isn't working hard enough to sort it out.

    And I know it's not Marc & co's fault, btw

    Aha! that was 502d

    On the basis that 'to 502' is 'disappear without trace or explanation' then I suggest:

    - all those that appear on or talk about Big Brother.

    - anybody who thinks that the 'Diana Story' is worth another word.

    - Jeremy Kyle. (I don't really know who Jeremy Kyle is, but he sounds like he should be 502'd)

    - every religious nut who thinks that they have a duty, on a Saturday afternoon in town, to assault the public's ears with their ramblings on God and who don't understand the difference between knowledge and belief.

    I'll withdraw the first three if I can have the last one granted.

    I tried to post a comment yesterday but it never made it beyond the 502 thing.
    In case this gets through:
    All supermarket buyers

    Beware - there is a tidal wave of food inflation still waiting to come through. Are the supermarket buyers under intruction from no. 10 to hold suppliers off as long as possible to avoid even more inflation headlines?
