    What I'm not happy about is that the mainstream media don't challenge them as vociferously as they should.
    If Question Time has them on as guests every week, they should be held to account more.

    I would say the point is not whether the far right should have a platform. The point is, the EU is composed of independant sovereign nations and what happens within their borders is up to them. UK is no longer a member of EU and so can no longer have a voice on the rules.

    Free speech, fine. However, what the likes of Farage, BravOmen, Bannon, Banks and Robinson demand is not so much free speech. But rather the ability to say anything no matter how offensive and untrue with total impunity and immunity from any criticism, pushback and satire. When questioned or challenged in any way shape or form, these supposed tough guys who call others snowflakes immediately shed tears of self pity.

    Well, the Belgians know what it's like tobe ruled by the national-conservatives. And the national-conservatives happening in Brussels, probably brought back unhappy memories of the sad days of the 1940s and occupation. The Belgians have the full right to refuse any national, of any nation, who won't to use their soil, to manifest their ultra-right anti democratic politics. National-conservatives; is just a new fancy name for an old Italian politician philosophy.
    Why didn't they hold their ultra-right anti democratic happing in London? Maybe it's because the UK's police, have the same rights as the Mayors of Brussels have.

    There was a barman in the US who kicked out one Individual straight away, as soon as he entered the bar because he seen just slightly under his t-shirt he had a Nazi symbol on a chain. Other customers in the bar worried and asked why he was so heavy handed with that one person. He responded “You have to. He comes in, has a beer, causes no trouble. The next time he comes he brings a pal. They don’t cause any trouble and so you let them back. But then every time they come back they bring a few more people. And after a while they do cause trouble and they become your only customers so then your bar turns into a Nazi bar. So it’s better to turn that guy away straight away.”

Farages "free speech", posing in front of a photograph staged to duplicate a Nazi equivalent was intended to whip up hate, in all likelihood it contributed to the death of an MP.
      Farage has loads of opportunities to speak, including being systematically platformed by the BBC. That does not mean he is entitled to insist on going into any venue and forcing his hateful ideology on others. If a local administration does not want this "movement" proselytising in its public venues it is quite entitled to prevent it.

But then we are giving them carte blanche to spread the hate fuelled rhetoric. but as has been stated, it was not a big event and was a kind of friends of friends event that no one was particularly interested in. But then maybe we should be interested in these kind of events. It’s a tough one. One thing for sure you’ll always find Nigel Farage at the middle of these things.
