Shame on all of you.

You should be grateful that this country has such a fine tradition of free speech and should be praising the BBC. You should, at the very least, not disrupt the whole of White City with your hypocritical nonsense.

Where were you (and the SWP) when Newsnight was interviewing Sheikh Al-Qaradawi? Is it only right-wing extremists that you want to silence?

Griffin, or Al-Qaradawi for that matter, should be allowed to express their views, regardless of how unsavoury you or I may find them.

I truly hope you fail in your objective to disrupt the BBC's honest endeavours.
