Over the years various individuals and groups have actively tried to prevent people having a voice at the Sydney Forum by using underhanded and illegal tactics such as denying visas, threatening venues, speakers and participants, blocking phone lines with computer dialing, spying on and photographing Forum participants and threatening destruction of property. They have been unsuccessful in their endeavours.
However in adherence with our ideals of free speech for all, one of the most vocal deniers of free speech of the Sydney Forum was invited to speak at the Forum to present his views, and give him the opportunity to listen to and debate the people he opposed. He saw no value in the freedom of speech that the Forum provides and declined the invitation.
Our invitation to him appears below.
