UK lifts ban on radio host Michael Savage

July 20, 2009 By admin

Excellent report from the SF Politics Examiner:

The British Daily Mail reported today that “Home Secretary Alan Johnson is to scrap his predecessor’s policy of naming and shaming people banned from Britain for spreading race hate and terrorism… The U-turn follows Jacqui Smith’s controversial decision two months ago to announce a list of 16 people branded as ‘least wanted’ in the UK.”

This was not a benevolent government righting itself, or an fatally injured British Labor Party trying to save itself.

This was one individual, one American, who refused to be intimidated, bullied and banned by a major Western government. This defense of free speech was personal, and singular, as it was in the beginning…

Michael Savage, through his intense legal and verbal defense defended the thousands of talk show hosts in this country, as well as the thousands of far left progressives who despise him and conservative talk radio.  They will never admit that nor will they send him a note of gratitude.  They  looked the other way when Savage was banned, and, today, they’ll turn their backs to his victory.
