o/t smuggled in underneath brexit

Facebook killing off freedom of speech by banning right wing political parties .

Okay some of these groups are odious but others are just alt right whose ideas are old school conservative.

What the liberals who have supported this don't realise is that they are killing of democracy and the day will come when maybe some of their own liberal ideas fall out of favour and they too will be silenced

I always thought tolerance was about allowing ideas you didn't agree with?

Yes those Tory MP's like their little boys........Heath for example. Another one that got away with it.

I have never seen a democratic uk, all these new voters voting for the first time they get all happy about being able to vote and think of making a difference, however by the time they come to vote again they realise that not one promise was kept and join the rest of us in realising it’s completely pointless

Nick Clegg is one of the bosses there.

Aren't liberals meant to be in favour of free speech?

Just shows how all our parties seem to have merged into one PC, neoliberal, anti-democratic, anti-free speech cartel.

Not just Tories, David Steel knew about what Cyril Smith was up to and said nothing.

Not exactly smuggled under the radar as it features in every news outlet (even English speaking Chinese papers and Gulf News).
