    Be afraid people, your views are being controlled to a point where this young lady has been banned from Newcastle United for expressing opinions that don't break any laws. They have set a very dangerous precedent that should ultimately be reversed and an apology submitted to the lady in question.

    My guess would be that there will be more to the story than is covered by an interview with Toby Young. I can not imagine it is going to be a balanced examination of the reasons behind the ban. She is appealing the ban now so I suppose we will see if anything comes from it. If it is overturned it will be all over the papers, if it isn't then it will not be heard of again

    Imagine if your guess was wrong. Completely possible.

    20 seconds of google search leads me to believe there is more to the story than and more reasons for their banning than is covered in the video. But as you say Toby Young could be telling 100% of a story from an unbiased view point, miracles have happened before, Leicester won the PL

    Fair enough. Instead of saying you are guessing-supply the contrary argument with links etc as you say you have to provide balance and context.

    When I replied I hadn't bothered. I saw Toby Young and presumed he would give a one sided view just like every thing he does. I only googled it after your reply
