Geert Wilders is in town again following his recent banning (he appealed against it and won); Mr Wilders is showing his film "Fitna" to a select audience at the House of Lords as he originally intended, I now have this image of a bunch of old buffers in a smoky darkened room snoring their way through it. (I just hope they didn't pay much for the tickets!)
Anyway, Mr Wilders itinerary is not the subject of my post; I'm more intrigued that the Student Union at Leeds University have banned their Atheist society from showing the film, in an utterly contradictory statement they claim that to show the film would breach their "freedom of expression policy", huh? stifle free speech because it... er.. stifles free speech?
What the heck are they teaching our kids these days?

That's the freedom of speech policy that says you can say what you like as long as you're not right-wing, isn't it?
Bloody students! :)
