“‘Several people are hurt’ as violent thugs shut down a FREE SPEECH event at King’s College...”

The problem lies with the sheep who are in attendance that allow the fascists to act out their insecurities. Mass retribution on these thugs and beat downs would put an end to this silliness..........

And here I thought Gilbert and Sullivan was supposed to be comedy, not documentary.
