The odious and censorious Stop Funding Hate group is in the news again. This time the publicity that this group is getting relates to how they are bullying and attempting to bully those companies that are advertising on the new free speech oriented news channel GB News. Stop Funding Hate are desperate to stop any alternative view to that approved of by the Left being heard in the UK. This is an aim that they must not be allowed to achieve.
I’ve encountered Stop Funding Hate before a few years back when they managed to bully the stationery company Paperchase into not advertising in the Daily Mail or working with the Daily Mail on promotions of Paperchase goods. This did not work out well for Paperchase as many of their potential customers were so disgusted at the company caving in to the bullying coming from Stop Funding Hate that they refused to shop at their stores.
When the above incident happened in November 2017 I did some digging into Stop Funding Hate and into their links with both nasty censorious groups and with the thoroughly anti British and pro-’refugee’ entity Citizens UK.
As Stop Funding Hate are now back in the news again and back to their usual bullying tactics, I thought that readers of this blog may be interested in what I discovered about Stop Funding Hate back in 2017. This article covers the history of the organisation, its founders and officers as they were in 2017, along with information about some of the groups that SFH have worked with or who have approved of or publicised their work.

Of course I would not at all suggest that people engage in direct contact or confrontation with SFH. Instead I would ask readers to raise the matter of this odious and censorious entity with their Member of Parliament and also most importantly to support those companies that have eschewed the threats and bullying from SFH and continue to advertise with GB News.
It is worth remembering that Saracens rugby club broke salary cap rules and were punished for it – after the Mail revealed it. If stop funding hate had their way they would have got away with it for longer.

Depressingly Wikipedia don’t mention that the Mail found this out
Yes indeed. SFH in that case would have allowed a wrong to go on longer before being exposed. SFH are a vile and odious pro-censorship group who are associated with other groups that want nothing more than yet more censorship.
