Weather you like or louth what he says you got to admire his bottle to say what he thinks especially when we live in a world that is offended by everything he's one of the few that says itvas it is and doesn't give a **** what anyone thinks of him . His removal from the house is a further example of the erosion of freedom of speech we are witnessing in this country more and more as the years go by.

No he's just an old offensive dick

There is a huge difference from freedom of speech and hate speech.

[Pincho Paxton]

I don't believe in free speech. Newspapers want free speech because they make money from it.

Nope even if people disagree they can choose to not listen hate speech or not .

Free speech or freedom to be offensive?

Either way doesn't matter he has a right to his opinion in much the same way they can tell him to ****off. In the end silencing opinion of others doesn't change anything really .

[MTVN]

Nah this isn't a free speech issue

People can have opinions without in any way offending or hurting other people. Ken knows he crosses the line and doesn't care as he showed in the DR.

Ummmmmmmmmmmm no he isn't. Continuous sexist comments and using racist slurs are not to be applauded. Horrible vile man who deserved to be kicked out on his sorry arse

[chuff me dizzy]

I cant stand the man ,but defend his right to free speech ,he's in his 70s, he was brought up pre PC brigade era as I was, when there really was free speech and no one was upset by it, it was the norm ,oh to go back to those days EVERYONE was happier

Apart from the people that hateful words and speeches were aimed at of course.

[MTVN]

Freedoms don't even exist in the BB house anyway, it's a highly controlled environment where the whole point is that your freedom is restricted

I fail to see why he should walk on eggshells to save others precious feeling maybe the nanny state plonkers should grow a thicker skin and deal with it instead of eroding other people's personal freedoms just because they don't like what someone else is saying.

Yes, even the black people loved being segregated in society and looked down upon.

Such wonderful times.

You are totally missing my points.

Free speech is completely fine, wonderful. Ken wasn't using free speech he was making vile remarks, offending people and he made a racist comment.

And who knows what else he has said to get ejected.

I agree Chuff, the so called PC brigade, in all walks of life, are ruining everything that's fair in life. Its one thing to be nasty but another to be ignorant through age or intelligence.

[Ammi]

...Alexander was also brought up in the same era and yet he knows and told Ken that what he said was wrong...it's not a thing of age, it's a thing of respect...
