New policy on "anonymous" comments

A number of anonymous commenters have been trying to claim the moral high ground recently. The latest is this (reproduced unedited):
And not everyone who is eligible for benefits is aware and makes a claim, so there are savings elsewhere.

See, it's actually costing 'us' not very much taken in context, but your bitter one-man crusade marches on blindly.

Imagine if all your spiteful passion could be directed at a worthy target!

You know full well grouping all these fraud claims together with your spurious fag packet calculations is ignoring the *whole* picture and simply serves to demonise the rest of the benefit receiving population. I imagine you take pleasure imagining cripples being attacked in the street. It is disingenuous to pretend your blog is anything other than a petty hate site.

"Fraud's only bad if a poor person does it."
I suppose the splenetic personal vituperation comes within the realm of free speech, unfounded though it is. But I draw the line at such self-righteousness being peddled anonymously, which has become the usual way.

So the policy on anonymous comments is now that the anonymous posting facility is for benefit system employees. Other posters are expected to say who they are. This appears on the comments screen.
