Holocaust denier jailed for three years

[Dole]

You seem completely obsessed with this fictional notion that we in the UK are living in some sort of 50s style 'Red China' where 'speaking out' is prohibited by death or something- its absolute bollocks, and pretty fucking insulting to the places where there really IS no freedom of speech.

Ken livingston was suspended for what he said - not sacked, shot or chemically castrated but suspended from his job for a month. Big fucking deal!

Was he making a pertinent political statement at the time? Was he trying to inform the electorate about some information that has been kept from us? Was he expressing an unpopular political opinion?

NO- he got into a fight with a fucking daily mail journalist and insulted him using a pretty tired, cliched analogy that the recipient took major offense over because of the nature of the insult and because he was Jewish - and subsequently Livingston was punished. Was his punishment over the top? Arguably, yes. But he was ONLY FUCKING SUSPENDED FROM HIS JOB for a MONTH.
