Again, so the so called freedom of speech in UK have limit huh. He is a sport commentator, he is basically asked not to voice his political views publicly, which is funny coming from nation that lecturing others on free speech. I still remember when they said they couldn't do anything when the lunatics were burning the quran. Maybe I just make a mountain out of a molehill, but at least I could see the molehill.
