Seems that some of the left-leaners on here don't value the democratic process if it doesn't suit. What would that say about a future labour government if typical of some supporters on here - would they ignore a public vote every time it didn't go their way.

It shouldnt be banned because its right wing, id ignore any posts that suggest this is the reason
The strong argument for me was banning it because its terrible. Full of terrible journalists with backward mindsets, and awful nazi roots which I did not know about...
The issue is with the DM in particular, not all right wing media. Because the DM simply makes a mockery of right wing media and all media.
I dont know what youre on about democratic processes, we're discussing newspapers.. But speaking about democratic processes since you brought it up, maybe the forum should vote on it? Seems like there are arguments on both sides, and a vote might settle it. You keep going on about how much you like democracy, you must be elated with this idea of mine.
