Agree Disagree Don't know Don't care

I think that: Oxford students' union was wrong to invite Nick Griffin and David Irving to address the union.

Because: Their extreme views are legitimised by the invitation and the publicity that the event has given them.

It wasn't actually the students' union (OUSU), but the Oxford Union Society, which is an independent debating club.

OUSU actually opposed the invitation.
