BAN THEM.That'll prove em wrong

student union has banned a university Conservative society from using its social media accounts - because they challenged its position on free speech.

Lincoln University’s Conservative Society has been censored by its student union after it posted an image online showing that the university had been ranked “very intolerant” on free speech in a recent survey.

In response, the Students’ Union swiftly suspended the society’s social media accounts, on the grounds that highlighting the university’s ranking had brought it into disrepute.

However, the decision has been met with widespread derision from social media users and Lincoln MP Karl McCartney, who said that union officials should be “ashamed”.

"This intolerant, illiberal and totalitarian response is akin to something out of the Soviet Union or North Korea rather than a place for learning and debate,” he said.

What!!! students who campaign and protest march endlessly to defend their right to free speech are attempting to GAG others - why does that come as no surprise I wonder.

Students in their 'infinite wisdom' of a couple of decades on the planet are going to destroy this country if we let them. We need to think for them until they are old enough to see the error of their ways.
