The right of free speech is under attack from those of the hard left and the 'progressive' media class. I support Sonia Kruger and her right to free speech and denounce those who use bullying and intimidation to attempt to silence Sonya and her right. I support the need for open discussion on issues without the fear of being shamed or ridiculed. I support the need for open discussion on the issues causing fear and disharmony in the community without being labelled a bigot or a racist. I support the right to peaceful demonstration without the fear of the fringe hard left and Socialist elements intruding with abuse and violence. The treatment of Sonia Kruger has proven that we are no longer a Nation where free speech and personal thought or opinion is able to be practiced without the fear of retribution from those who seek to impose their views via violence bullying intimidation and fear.
