yeah, shut SOME up, but what will happen if a government endorses something like that? hypothetically speaking of course
well first off you piss off israel, and you lose diplomatic ties to them,
possibly hinder ties to germany and other euro countries who have laws against the holocaust denial, becomes hypocritical in their eyes that the country that beat them in war, starts endorsing a clearly anti-semetic rhetoric, here's a list of other countries with laws against holocaust denial: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Italy, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Switzerland. certainly some would be rather pissed about it, and some would have something to gain if Britain become a pariah, certainly those trillion dollar economies
then the beast, the United States, has the largest jewish population in the world, more then 6 mil, you don't think they wouldn't influence some diplomatic ties there, one can say well they aren't certainly going after countries in the arab league for their holocaust denial as vigilantly, maybe cause it's hard to change a whole region, but a single country, a majority christian country, an ally can be pressured quite immensely
now most likely none of that will happen, and some of those euro countries would just as likely repeal many of the holocaust denial laws themselves to appease growing muslim extremism
