Quotes of the Day 19.4.2007: A Message To Antonia Bance & Jo Salmon

"If someone believes the holocast didn't exist they are clearly bonkers, but does that mean they should be banned from articulating that view? Surely the best way to defeat such idiots is to expose their specious arguments? That's what you do in a free society." - Iain Dale
"Discussing the BNP but refusing to link to their site is in no way stifling free speech. It's their job to drum up publicity for their policies and get people interested in their website. It's not mine. Respecting free speech means letting the guy stand at Speakers' Corner and rant. It doesn't entail handing him a loudspeaker. (This is another reason why I'm against state funding of political parties.)" - Mr Eugenides
