I watched the first five minutes of that video and that bloke heckles the panel (he wasn't inivted to speak originally) and he was heckled back by other members of the audience. Why is he entitled to heckle and others not? Why didn't you mention he completely peaceful manner in which the first woman asked the question and was answered (until funnily enough that bloke heckled)?

That is literally a video showing a debate, in the mainstream media, on immigration. How is this an example of the debate being shut down?

I don't want proof, I simply want examples where people aren't allowed to discuss immigration. Don't forget your very first response to my original point that immigration is actually discussed all the time in the media was 'Ha!' As if to say I'm wildly wrong and you've managed to come up with one example of a private opinion (after a discussion about immigration) and an actual debate on immigration as an example of the debate on immigration being shut down. This is crazy.

You also said I'm buring my head in the sand so help me out here. When do the media shut the debate down on immigration?

Read the statistics. Read the links. I'm no liar.

You are a name caller and rather amusingly....you provide direct proof of what I was complaining about.

Thank you.

I've given you two examples now. I can see the game you're playing. You don't want 'proof' but you want 'examples'? What's that all about?

This person is implicitly accused of racism (given though he doesn't mention race) and is heckled by the audience as soon as he mentions immigrants.

He may or may not be a racist....It isn't actually knowable from what he says...He sounds more frustrated by his situation ...but those not interested in what he's actually saying assume racism anyway.

The response he gets from the audience appears to make him uncomfortable enough to leave.

People breaking into the conversation on Question time happens frequently. I agree that this bloke was a little too forceful with the second panel member when he started to refer to race in respect to his concerns. but he didn't heckle the first panelist.

However, it's direct proof that when immigration is discussed that there a certain section of people who like to assume and accuse people of racism.

The poster 'ghosteagle' is another prime example of what I'm talking about in terms of trying to close me down...Telling me to leave, calling me names.

Yes I do think you're playing the 'flat earther' here.

You are deciding what I believe and are placing your prejudices upon me.

Sorry stirling old chum, I can't recall the threads exactly, but you've definitely done that with me. That said, you've also defended me on occasion.

You are inventive with the truth, i'll give you that. You have constantly blamed immigrants so don't even try that one. I'm also happy for people to read these posts, although i'm thinking that most 'commentators' (??? Yes, i'm sure the'll be an editorial in The Times) will have been bored by your ramblings and lies and moved onto other matters.
