Bastard Old Holborn Is Gone: Blogger Undone By War

OLD Mr Anorak has long enjoyed the work of Bastard Old Holborn and is dismayed to read this on his blog:

Today, a fellow Libertarian decided to post my name , address, email address, business address, photo of me and my children on the web. Because he was angry with me over my stand on Israel.

Tonight, my wife and family have read the consequent death threats and insults to them that have poured in and asked me to close this blog.

Many people now know where I live, where my children go to school, how I earn my crust and I will not put my family at any further risk.

So I am closing my blog.

It has been fun, I have thoroughly enjoyed it but now I must think of me and mine.

I thank all of you for your support.

I will be deleting this blog in 5 days time from now. They won. I knew they would.

Andrew Withers has a reply here.

Why delete the blog?
