The Declaration of Right, No. 9, said that members of Parliament have freedom of speech in Parliament--i.e., in the meeting place of the public body they are members of. That is very different from claiming the right to speak in a private venue you don't own.

My point was just that venue has been at the heart of freedom of speech since its modern invention. The philosophy of freedom of speech applies to both public and private spheres. The First Amendment does not.
