      The influence of Foucault, Derrida etc may well have influenced the fact free politics of intellectual elites like Frank Furedi et al but...

      ... the elephant in the #BattleofIdeas Barbican is the influence of the right wing media in undermining public debate and democracy.

      I don't think that is an elephant in any room. Much written on this & argued for this. But this debate was about academia's involvement.

      Agreed not part of this debate. Spiked team choose conference topics to suit their agenda. Role of right wing press is elephant in agenda.

      Is it OK with you if people focus on issues other than right-wing causes sometimes? Look at left-wing ones too?

      Core Spiked authors are obsessed with attacking left wing issues and ignore or reject any issue that undermines their libertarian agenda.

      I don't know that that's true. It was Conatus who introduced me to that & they are Progressive. I am not libertarian.

          But even if it was, is it OK with you that a Libertarian group pursue their own political agenda?

          Yes fine they promote their agenda. It's just that they are not always transparent about it and they can be very intolerant of other views.

          Well, I am not and James & Bob did not seem to be either & we had different views which we discussed amicably at this debate.

          Cannot comment on the debate but when I visit @spikedonlineI all I see is intolerance and dismissal of anyone with opposing views.

          Well, I haven't seen that. I've just seen you complaining that the debate was not about what you wanted it to be about.

          My comments were addressed at the conference as a whole. This from a few years back gives my concerns:http://www.reasonandreality.org/?p=1710

          I suggest not going if you don't like its approach. There are plenty of other left-wing or right-wing events. I value one which is neither.
