Amsterdam Bans Broadcast of David Icke Speech at Demonstration

NL Times  

The city of Amsterdam has prohibited the use of a large LED screen for British conspiracy theorist David Icke to address protesters remotely during a demonstration on Sunday at Dam Square. Mayor Femke Halsema stated that the risk of public disorder was too high, citing concerns over Icke's controversial statements and their potential to incite counterprotests. “Considering the unrest and protests his antisemitic views and past statements have caused, his online presence could provoke similar responses this time,” Halsema wrote. The protest, described as a "peace demonstration," is set to feature various speakers, including Dutch parliamentarian Gideon van Meijeren of the Forum for Democracy party.
