PayPal has reinstated the accounts of the Free Speech Union, a few days after leading British MPs called the ban an “orchestrated, politically-motivated move.”

Accounts from the Free Speech Union (FSU) and the Daily Sceptic blog, which were frozen by Paypal without a clear explanation earlier this month have now been restored, according to its founder Toby Young.
