OXFORD UNION INVITES HOLOCAUST DENIER IRVING TO SPEAK

Outrage after Holocaust denier David Irving invited to Oxford Union (National Review)
Oxford University’s world famous Oxford Union debating society has sparked outrage after it was revealed that they have invited Holocaust denier David Irving, who was recently released from an Austrian jail, to address students at the end of November. The Oxford Union has also asked British fascist leader Nick Griffin to join him, reports The Guardian.

“If Columbia can invite Ahmadinejad, then why shouldn’t we invite Irving?” one Oxford Union committee member asked.

Answer: Because the Oxford Union is a private society and the University Chancellor cannot (and in my vew would not) speak before Irving to lambast him in the way Lee Bollinger lambasted Ahmadinejad
