wing Canadian speakers spark heated protests in Auckland
Far-right
activist says PMs comments show limits of tolerance
A
Canadian far-right activist is criticising the prime minister's
comments on the controversy over her speech as "virtue
signalling nonsense".

Lauren
Southern and Stefan Molyneux could not find a venue in Auckland
prepared to host their speaking tour on the dangers of
multiculturalism.
Prime
Minister Jacinda Ardern said New
Zealanders were not hostile to free speech, but were hostile to the
views of the two Canadians.
In
posts on Twitter, Lauren Southern said the prime minister's comments
were a blatant display of the limits of diversity.
She
said Ms Ardern claimed to support diversity, but cannot support
differing opinions being espoused peacefully.
Ms
Southern said it was ironic to see the left cheering her being
silenced, given the outrage over whether a baker had the right to
refuse to make a wedding cake for a gay couple
We had a sold out show & an agreement with a venue that was broken.
Other venues couldn’t be used because of government intervention or threats of violence.
That’s not the free market.
Also very ironic to see the left cheering this on after their outrage over gay cakes.
