Belgian Police stifle free speech

! This post hasn't been updated in over a year. A lot can change in a year including my opinion and the amount of naughty words I use. There's a good chance that there's something in what's written below that someone will find objectionable. That's fine, if I tried to please everybody all of the time then I'd be a Lib Dem (remember them?) and I'm certainly not one of those. The point is, I'm not the kind of person to try and alter history in case I said something in the past that someone can use against me in the future but just remember that the person I was then isn't the person I am now nor the person I'll be in a year's time.

Four UKIP MEPs – including Leader, Nigel Farage – were threatened with arrest by the Belgian Police outside the European Parliament building as they staged a peaceful protest against the EU Constitution.

The MEPs had taken an inflatable bulldozer with “Clearing the way for the EU Constitution” written on the side of it and had inflated it in the “Zone of Free Expression” outside the building. The Zone of Free Expression is a place where peaceful protest can take place, a haven of freedom in the EU Police State.

Not long after inflating the bulldozer and attracting the attention of TV cameras, the Belgian police turned up, switched off the generator and parked police vans in front of it so the cameras couldn’t spread the heretical message.

The local police chief refused to tell the MEPs why they were being denied the right to peaceful protest but did offer to lock Nigel Farage in a cell for 12 hours while they sorted it out.

The bulldozer has been confiscated.
