'Chris Roberts' is a disgusting filthy creep who has made parts of my life feel as unsafe as they have done as a tied lessee. Tied lessees will know exactly what I am getting at with this statement.

The language he uses in emails to my work address is shocking in its depth of abuse, its generally unacceptable nature, its unfounded accusations and disgusting jibes.

Put quite simply - if you got emails like these you would struggle to believe that any normal person could be producing the content, it is so offensive.

It is impossible to fathom the motivation behind such behaviour.

Paranoia dictates the answer must be that he is being paid to disrupt this and the Publican Forum. It is inconceivable that anyone could be so perverse as 'Chris Roberts' without having a direct motivation of payment behind them.

I accuse myself, 'Chris Roberts' on the open forum of the Morning Advertiser website, of being in the pay of Enterprise Inns and BBPA, to disrupt and damage debate in the realm of pubs and free trade in the UK. What else other than cash could motivate me to behave in such a way?
