Protesters have tonight succeeded in forcing UKIP leader Nigel Farage to cancel his planned appearance in Cambridge at a classic liberal event called a 'talk'.

“Fuck freedom of speech!” said one of the protesters online, enjoying her ability to uncensored communication of her political opinions.

Many other protesters made similar online comments:

“I have a right to go onto private property in order to cause disruption for my own political purposes. It's a free country!!!!”

“Just because I believe my right to freedom of expression is more important than others' doesn't mean I don't have rights!”

“We will stretch the limits of peaceful protest! We will spread our message of inclusiveness by strength! We will prove the superiority of our argument by refusing to engage on any level!”

The protesters planned to assemble at the private Mill Lane site in central Cambridge. Their presence on the private property would only have been possible due to the University's willingness to allow political expression.

Varsity reached out to notable commentator Voltaire for comment, but, on account of his having been dead for 200 years, only a written statement was available:I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.”

In response, the Cambridge protesters are reportedly organising a trip to protest at the Panthéon. A request has already been sent for banners saying “Fuck off Voltaire”.

It is reported that Nigel Farage will now attend an event at the University of Exeter.
