. @Keir_Starmer refuses to criticise police investigation into @darrengrimes_ re Starkey's racist interview.
"There has to be tolerance of free speech. [But] as a general proposition, there is a line. When people go over the line it’s right that it’s investigated…"

"I think it does sometimes have to involve the police unfortunately...

"When I was DPP there was a lot of focus on whether what people say on social media should be policed or not.
There has got to be a level of tolerance of course...

"But there is a line that can be crossed and it is very important that when it is crossed that there is involvement, in some cases prosecutions.”

The big question of course is whether the CPS/cops are saying the publication on social media of *any* interview with someone who says racist things is potentially committing a public order offence.
Indeed publication/broadcast anywhere.
