Well so long as we're clear then that you were mistaken in your claim.

As for 'the alliance' that you feel has formed against your 'axis', I'm not sure me or the other members would fully agree with your conclusions. Not only have we disagreed about topics such as non-native speakers, PAs and the complaints procedure in the last few weeks but both the posters you mentioned have also posted to explicitly state that we ('the alliance' that is) don't agree on everything.
