Social media users who spread racial hatred should be banned from sites such as Twitter and Facebook, MPs say.

The All-Party Parliamentary Inquiry into anti-Semitism wants prosecutors to examine whether prevention orders like those used to restrict sex offenders' internet access could be used.

Whilst I can't stand racists, this is like the, oh, wait, I'm going direct to Godwin's Law in the 2nd reply!

If we keep banning everything that is politically incorrect, there won't be anything (or anyone) left soon. How racist must it be? One slip of the tongue or constant tirades? Tongue in cheek as well? Soon opposition to the ruling party will be banned as well.

That said, hate speech is banned here. You can speak out against minorities, other faiths, skin colours etc. but you cannot incite hatred against them.
