Robin-H   11 #65 Posted March 30, 2018 yup, and im not a fan, twitter obviously think the same too  I found his speech at the Oxford Union quite interesting (although he isn't that great of a public speaker), as it gives some more background to him and his beliefs.  There is a clip of it here.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

OPEN BORDERS   10 #69 Posted March 30, 2018 i dont want to further this conversation, i dont like him, you do, twitter have banned him  You don't like his arguments. That's why you don't want to further this. You don't have any proof of his 'hate speech. That's why you don't want to further this argument. Usually you are full of links to further your debating skills !  Hate speech - prove it. You brought it up Mel.  ---------- Post added 30-03-2018 at 18:02 ----------  You two seem butt hurt about Tommy being banned.  I'm not hurt. Why should I be ? He will only find another platform to broadcast from. The problems he makes people aware of wont go away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Tommy’s hate speech tweets= https://resistinghate.org/tommy-robinson-and-his-hate-tweets/  I don't know why you think I am 'butt hurt' as you so eloquently put it.  Do you think offensive speech should get you banned from online platforms?
