“It is not worth the while to go round the world to count the cats in Zanzibar” - Henry David Thoreau
Free speech is about the state dictating what is or is not acceptable, it is not about free people freely expressing contempt for contemptible behaviour.
Refusal to finance a platform for thugs to spew their venomous bile does not constitute censorship.
Financing a platform constitutes support.
paraphrased from Lord Vetinari
"I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue."

To the Tower with her, and all her vile crew!
Thanks for expressing exactly what I was thinking!
Concerned Student. We either have a huge Vulcan Mindmeld here or…
It’s just beyond the obvious. I can hardly believe this affair. I saw Harriet Harman (for my sins) on Sky this morning and the brass-faced mooishness of her was unbelievable. The whole bally lot of them need to be hung, drawn and quartered with a Kirgizian disembowelling cutlass. Some might say a Kazakh eviscerating scimitar but for me it’s just gotta be Kirgiz.
Oh and this is what happens to you if you are a nobody.
Well a nobody who has faught for your country.
And he got convicted of assaulting them!!!!
Overturned on Appeal thank god.
How the fuck could magistrates watch that and convict???

But RAB… RAB… He was drinking with his mates. He was a drinki-criminal and deserves our most heinous punishments.
We are now under the rule of the twatocracy. We are now under the rule of people who are technocrats who don’t do “techno”. We are under the rule of the kids you and I knew at school who were nerds but no good at science or maths. You know how it is. L Cpl Aspinall returns from some fucking hell-hole they sent him to and has a few drinks (wouldn’t you?) and then gets twatted. The whole “epidemic” of drink-fueled crime is bollocks. It is a further myth designed to further control.
If drunken hooliganism was that rife in our city centres do you not think I would have noticed it in Manchester? It’s tabloid scaremongering in order to crack down on us in the most puritanical manner possible. We have a government that is spectacular on that front.
And they can fuck off.
