From the Index on Censorship blog.
Blogger Seismic Shock, a Yorkshire-based student, received an alarming visit from local police late last year. Seismic, a Christian, had been heavily critical of Anglican vicar Stephen Sizer on his blog, alleging that Sizer associated with Holocaust deniers and anti-Semites.
On 29 November, he received a visit from local police, who advised him to remove certain posts from his blog. The police officers maintained that this was an “informal chat”, but the blogger, understandably intimidated, agreed to remove his original Blogger site, while maintaining his WordPress blog.
Index on Censorship has made numerous attempts to contact West Yorkshire Police in order to clarify a) under what authority the blogger was visited by police and b) what potential breach of law had been commited by the blogger that warranted such a visit.
So far, no explanation has been offered.
I’ll be watching this. I’ll also be backing my blog up in its entirety.

LOL, yeah, backing up your blog is a good idea, in these circumstances, I hadn’t thought of it that way :)
Thanks for your support

I haven’t seen many Libertarian blog take up the issue yet?
Surely one of the blizzard of new laws covers this scenario. The 2009 Prevention of Questioning Authority Act?

God botherers – mongs the lot of them.
