Detailed, well-researched and considered...a fascinating, thought-provoking and important contribution to the study of No Platform. - Paul Jackson, Searchlight. This book is about a lot more than the rights and wrongs of the policy of No Platform for fascists. Renton looks at the history of censorship and how it was the right wing that imposed it and the left which always fought it....Renton's book offers a thoughtful and wide-ranging discussion of the issue of free speech. - Mike Phipps, LabourHub. A valuable practical contribution....By describing the history and development of no platform and articulating clear left positions on free speech, No Free Speech for Fascists can be a useful contribution to struggles against a fascist milieu that, much like a century ago, has the potential to grow into a much larger threat. Amidst the noise of the culture wars, it can be challenging to focus on the specific threat of fascism within a resurgent far-right, and such clarity as can be found here is worth having. - Katie Feyh, Tempest.
