The Guardians chooses to publish opinion pieces by left and right wing politicians

Articles by Polly Toynbee sit alongside statements by David Cameron.

The Guardian has its own political persuasion but is not afraid to publish an alternative view by an individual.

If they didn't print an article that you didn't agree with, you'd be claiming that the paper doesn't support freedom of speech.
