In short: awful. “Freedom to Agree” makes me think of a university political society, each of them showing to the others how Right On they are, and, well, agreeing with each other, Sybil Fawlty-like (”Yes, I know…”).

I think the BNP and chums should speak. Despite being very wide of the mark, issues of immigration and Britishness that the BNP bring into the public domain are not welcome topics of discussion for the PM and his cabinet, or to the likes of equal opportunities groups. That's why they don't want them to speak. The BNP and chums will stitich themselves up without the Oxford students having to do much, as they are ridiculous and racist. But the broad subject matter they will discuss will bring closed door debates into the open, and that is important in preventing the likes of the BNP claiming support they should never have access to.
