Has been shown quite conclusively that UKIP support is siphoned almost exclusively from (ex) Tories. Not really concerning.

I am not suggesting free speech is wrong and nor do I think only views that reflect my world view should be tolerated.

However, there are limits to free speech, and I don't believe free speech should be used as an excuse to be racist, homophobic and discriminate against fellow human beings in any manner. I strongly feel that any civilised, democratic society has to observe limits to free speech to protect rights and civil liberties of others.

This is not about my world view being right - it is in fact about morals and the fact that any reasonable person would come to the conclusion that the UKIP candidate in question was plain racist.
