Luckily Tommy is no Wilberforce
Also, he's got no earth-shattering secrets to impart, just plain vile hate
so no need to despair, Alf

Wilberforce was hated by people who didn:t agree with him, because he was saying the wrong things at the time. Just like Tommy is today.

Weirdly, I partly agree with Alf. However, free speech is not consequence-free speech. No one is curbing his ability to give his opinions on any subject he wishes, he just doesn't have the right for those opinions to be given a public platform.

Yeah, which is why I said he doesn't have the right to a public platform for his free speech.
