Donald Trump is not, never was and would not come to the UK to debate. He was coming to open the new US embassy in London. Donald Trump has snubbed the UK. So much for our special relationship
Well I believe in free speech and long may it continue, whatever ones political colours may be.
It's not really a snub as he may be expecting lots of protesters etc and doesn't want to face it.
How long before someone shoots him?
Oh yes it's a fucking snub, an almighty big fucking snub.
Meanwhile those great defenders of ‘free speech’ UKIP seem to be in a bit of a quandary relating to the’ free speech’ tweets by the 25 year old girlfriend of their 54 year old leader Henry Bolton.Gotta love twitter.Could be time for yet another UKIP leadership election.
I read an article in the paper the other day which said they are going to stop the university's from closing down debate by 'no-platforming' speakers that hold views the majority of students don't agree with.
I see some of the university's 'debating society's' even tried to stop Germaine Greer from speaking.

Oh, yes, it's the rich, privileged, white, right-wing elite who don't like the idea of people holding them responsible for what they say!
Not seen those tweets, but surely UKIP is irrelevant now?Not seen those tweets, but surely UKIP is irrelevant now?
QuoteNot seen those tweets, but surely UKIP is irrelevant now?Not seen those tweets, but surely UKIP is irrelevant now? Apparently, they were texts to a friend. Though you don’t have to do much digging to find a whole host of small minded nasty racist tweets by Ms Marney.Nigel Farage has stated there is “no chance” of him returning to UKIP. So yeah UKIP is pretty much finished. But UK is still left with their nasty hangover - BREXIT.
It's odd how people will say things in messages that they probably wouldn't dream of saying person to person isn't it.
Like much o the pish spouted (anonymously) on this forum.
The only nasty hangover left by Nigel Farage and UCIP is the remoaners, but unlike a hangover a couple of asprin won't make the whinging bar stewards go away.
Except of course – the referendum is not legally binding – nor is article 50 – and the final deal needs the approval of parliament – which means it’s probably not going to happen at the end of the day.
