Don’t silence free speech

THE campaign by Stop Funding Hate is an attempt to silence free speech and freedom of opinion.

To see Richard Littlejohn branded a homophobe for his belief that children fare better in traditional homes with two parents of the opposite sex despite the fact he supports equality for same- sex couples (Mail) is a prime example of what the modern Left is really about — censorship.

PAUL LAIRD, address supplied. I DON’T think holiday company Center Parcs can have read all of Richard Littlejohn’s article, otherwise it would have noticed he stated: ‘I’d rather children were fostered by loving gay couples than condemned to rot in state-run institutions, where they face a better than average chance of being abused.’

JOHN GREEN, Dover, kent. HAVING a baby was once consid--

ered an intimate, personal event, important only to the families concerned.

Now the obsession with posting and emoting over baby scan photos is treated like some kind of achievement that demands public recognition.

Parents wishing to teach their children tolerance, freedom of thought and speech should avoid organisations who not only refuse to accept the views of others, but will go to any length to prevent them being aired.
