'Absolute right' to free speech

The Conservative MP David Davies wants to make it illegal for people to demonstrate against the military. He discusses if protests - like the one in Luton when a small group of anti-war protesters held placards saying "Anglian soldiers go to hell" and "Butchers of Basra" - should be made illegal with Abu Omar, who went to the demonstration in Luton but couldn't get inside the police cordon.
