  It sounds like they asked about specific parties being banned. 16% even said Labour…

  Without seeing the full survey it’s hard to gauge, but seems like it might’ve been odd phrasing.

  Disregarding that, I think I agree with the majority here. Reform are, sadly, a legitimate political party in the UK, who even have seats in Parliament. I don’t feel we should be targeting individual political parties with freedom of speech restrictions, at least not on a national level. Students and staff getting their universities to bar them would be fine. Perhaps an odd distinction, but I think it’s an important one.
