    Just had yet another prissy rejection in ulm for 'abuse' for the following:

    Yes of course it is. She is its beneficial owner.
    Not until the PR+Probate process has completed.

    Not so. As his widow, she is its beneficial owner as soon as he
    shuffles off.

    No, because the house wasn't in joint names. Nor was it her primary
    residence.

    I'm sure I've told you that several times before.

    And you're wrong.

    You need to understand what beneficial ownership means.

    (look it up in a dictionary, if that helps)"


    What's wrong with that?

    If it's the last line, it's word-for-word what Mr Perry said to me right
    here in this thread at 18.20 yesterday:

    "I'm sure I said they weren't "intimate" in the usual meaning of that
    word (look it up in a dictionary, if that helps)."

    Why hasn't action been taken to rein in his abuse?

    Seems basically fair enough; I wouldn't have rejected it.

    As ULM is a discussion forum, the best answer to that IMO, if you
    haven't already done so, would be to put your valid point again to
    Mr Perry; regarding his seeming misunderstanding of the term "beneficial ownership". but in the simplest terms. Thus giving him that opportunity
    to respond, which has been so unjustly denied him, by this somewhat
    capricious decision by an unknown moderator.

    He's made up his mind and no amount of facts will change it.

    But why should he ? And thus lay himself open to futher scurrilous attacks
    and accusations from you; as you have already made in respect of his intentions in respect of this widow ?

    For which it goes without saying you have yet to apologise.
