In response toI am myself not sure that Jacob Rees Mogg, who I know reasonably well, wants to stand to be leader of the Conservative Party today. (or in the near future).
I posted something along the lines of:I always knew he was a smart chap!
which has been deleted. Apologies if it's not the exact phrase used in the post - I think it is, or as near as makes no difference, but as I mention, the original has gone so I can't be 100% sure.
A bit of light humour (or so I thought) that has apparently offended somebody or crossed a discussion line.
Since I can't see the offence, nor why such a post would cross "the line" I'm puzzled why it was deleted.
I'm not really bothered about the deletion itself, more wanting to point out that such seemingly spurious decisions to delete posts without explanation is demotivating as regards joining in any discussions.

I have looked at the thread that contains the JR-M comment post by John Hemmings and can see no deleted post following it. So I am reasonably sure it was not deleted.
