It must be wonderful to not to have to run a ward of nurses, run a school, or a large corporation and instead just appear in the media with patronising, condescending nonsense like this. Liberty is unelected by us, unaccountable to us and largely unrepresentative of us. You should bear that in mind instead of pretending you speak for us. Also, I lived and worked in Pakistan for many years - if you want to do some valid campaigning for liberties, emigrate there and do your preaching.

What does she know about Liberty? She is a condescending, fashionably left-wing, privately educated person who thinks she is untouchable in a debate because she is from an ethnic minority and has rich parents. I have never seen her actually argue a point, she just reduces everything to a race issue despite the religion Islam not being a race but rather a choice. Pathetic. Genuine debate is stifled and reduced to simple name calling by people like her. She is narrow minded and unable to argue.

Did she just say first they come for the terror suspect and then for you ? I dont think so. First they come for those who use free speech that offends. The terror suspects are way down the list

The European Charter of Human Rights is fake.

Its aim was to thwart any more Nuremberg style trials by demanding retrospective legislation be illegal (Article 7). Auschwitz was relegalized. Auschwitz-at-home was also legalized by giving rights against cruel and unusual treatment only to prisoners! Kettle? Black? Yes, they really did.

The UK version of the sick ECHR is much worse than even this, with so many exclusion clauses obviously drafted using ideas of Wittgenstein, H****r's old schoolmate.

[nimajneb2005]

this is a truely terrible video by someone who usually is very vocal about issues that matter and tends to present thought provoking ideas (if not evidence). i think the biggest problem is she tried to fit in every aspect of libertarianism into a 2 min clip.

This fraud (Chakrabarti) should be imprisoned and the group Liberty should be criminalised. They are a disgrace to society. Jail her and disband Liberty.
