Conditional Love

UPDATE 22/1/2011 - Wolstencroft takes me to court to get intervention order.
UPDATE 2/2/2011 - Wolstencroft suggests debate, and I agree. Taking his time getting back to me.  
UPDATE 3/2/2011: Wolstencroft turns down debate.
UPDATE 4/2/2011: I've been corrected: "We could not agree on terms to a debate"

MUFF director Richard Wolstencroft likes to posture as a champion of free speech, but this advocacy doesn't extend to anything that might get in the way of his self-promotion.

I created a blog during MUFF this year - Richard Wolstencroft's Unconcealedness - which displayed these screenshots from Wolstencroft's Facebook page, showing that he is a racist extremist and a Nazi apologist.

He recently sent an infringement notice to Wordpress demanding that the blog be shut down on the grounds of copyright violation. In fact the reproduction of his writing and screenshots is permitted under Section 42 of the Commonwealth Copyright Act 1968, a fact that would be known to a free speech advocate.

The blog was shut down, but was restored after I contacted Wordpress. However, they won't let me post anything new, which is why I've had to create this blog.

Wolstencroft has been getting some fresh media attention after his home was visited by the police on November 11, searching for copies of LA Zombie.

But he is clearly a hypocrite, blustering about Free Speech while actively trying to prevent his own neo-fascist views being exposed to public scrutiny and criticism.

Visit Richard Wolstencroft's Unconcealedness to see what Wolstencroft tried to stop you seeing. If he hasn't censored it again...

UPDATE: Website taken down again as at 8am, 13/11/2010
