Re Virgin Trains/Daily Mail. Whether or not it is censorship, it is symptomatic of an age in which we feel that the best way to deal with things we disagree with is to stop them happening, rather than engaging them in argument, or ignoring them by not buying…

I see Virgin Trains are getting heavily criticised because they're no longer going to stock the Daily Mail? We went through that too, when we decided to change back and use regular toilet paper.https://t.co/u8Hb8kCeEm

The best thing about Virgin Trains' decision to stop selling the Daily Mail is the number of Daily Mail readers now calling for renationalisation of the railways.

Virgin Trains bans the Daily Mail because “this paper is not compatible with our beliefs.” Maybe, instead of worrying about Brexit, immigration etc, Virgin should worry about getting passengers from A to B on time and at a reasonable price. pic.twitter.com/8auZ6ooTxc

Virgin Trains drops Daily Mail as it deems paper 'not compatible with our beliefs' but continues to have these unbearable signs in the toilets so now I don't know what to think pic.twitter.com/T1CllBL84h
