It's not top-down. People vote for this stuff, so I agree it's organic. Politicians reflect the culture of the people they represent. That's their job and they will be fired if they don't respect it. It's actually kind of amazing how free the internet is compared to TV and radio. Nobody seems to be worried that you can't broadcast such offensive things on those traditional media. Why should the internet be a special free-speech zone when it can have the same reach as them? Not saying I agree with it, but that could be the common feeling among British voters.
