American Billionaire Capitalist company Twitter have now banned UK political party FOR BRITAIN (the one Morrissey likes) .
This follows them banning soon to be MEP Tommy Robinson and British political commentator Carl Benjamin.

Worrying times


About For Britain:

The For Britain Movement is a positive, pro-British, pro-democracy party, which believes in preserving the culture and values of the decent British majority, and passing these on to future generations.

We believe in the democratic mandate of the people, and therefore demand the UK’s complete withdrawal from the European Union without further delay.

We believe in truth, justice, and freedom. We seek to create a Britain where the rule of law is upheld, and justice prevails over political convenience.

We will restore freedom of speech as the backbone of the democratic system.

We sit neither on the Left nor the Right, we are the decent, fair, common sense majority whose voice has been ignored for too long.

What if Twitter decided to ban all Labour MPS due to anti-semitism would you agree with that too?

Defeated U.K. Independence Party leadership candidate Anne Marie Waters announced she will split from the party and found a new one called For Britain, the Times reported.

Waters lost to Henry Bolton in the recent UKIP leadership election. Known for her hard-line anti-immigration and anti-Muslim positions, Waters said she decided to found the new far-right party after Bolton and former UKIP leader Nigel Farage branded her and her supporters “Nazis and racists.”


“My new party will be different. We will speak to the forgotten people,” Waters said. “I want to hold public meetings in neglected parts of the country. I want a party that is fully committed to speaking to those who are ignored by the rest of politics.”

According to a UKIP spokesperson, the party is “pretty sanguine” about the split.

“We don’t think there is a market for the views Ms. Waters claims, and of course some people support her in the party and some will leave, but, as Henry [Bolton] said, if people have the perspective that Anne Marie [Waters] does, that Islam is evil, then it is not one endorsed by our own constitution,” he told the Times. “Why would we worry about people leaving that disagree with our constitution?”

He definitely did not say that, I think she was a little miffed at losing and being kicked out. As awar historian himself he would never abuse the term Nazi.

Probably a good thing they're not being given a platform if their leader is guilty of slander, then.

No one is entitled to use Twitter, it's a platform owned by a company in which you've got to agree to the TOS to use. If they ban an extremist group than that's their choice.

If you rent out a room to someone who then proceeds to disregard the rules they agreed to follow, you evict them. Twitter is no different. People are entitled to freedom of speech but they aren't entitled to other people's platforms.
