There is a free speech crisis in Britain today. It is now impossible to deny that.
If you don't believe that free speech is under threat across Britain, consider these three recent cases.
In England, a retired police officer is in court today, appealing against a conviction for having posted a satirical meme about Islam on Facebook.
In Scotland, a man has just been acquitted after being prosecuted on the strength of dashcam footage which revealed he had said something racist under his breath and in the privacy of his own car.
And in Wales, an elected member of parliament has been banned from speaking in the chamber because he raised concerns about the pace and scale of demographic change.
Now perhaps you'd like to think again.

📣🚨 FSU VICTORY!
A Scottish FSU member was driving on the M80 with his four-year-old son after a day at an amusement park when another car cut him up, nearly causing a collision.
Under his breath, he muttered something racist. The windows were down, but the other driver wasn’t looking at him. The only witness was his young son in the back seat.
Convinced the dangerous driver had been drinking, our member contacted the police. They eventually stopped both cars and reviewed his dashcam footage.
A week later, the police contacted him to say that an offence had been committed — not by the dangerous driver, but by our member, for words he had muttered under his breath in the privacy of his own car.
He was prosecuted for allegedly causing alarm and distress, even though only he and his young son were in the car. It is extraordinary.
The Free Speech Union found him an excellent barrister, and he was acquitted by the Justice of the Peace within minutes.
This is the closest we have come to defending someone prosecuted for thought crime.
This is the extent of police overreach in speech and thought policing. They need to get their priorities straight.

Such a confused bunch of misfits.

Wtf?!
After falling and injuring myself, I went to A&E. I was violently sexually assaulted. I was kept in put in a private sideroom, woken at night. Injected, drugged, and r*ped in Pinderfields NHS hospital, Wakefield, leaving me with lifelong injuries.
I lost my job as a special needs teacher for 13 years whilst the Rapists walk free.
Management covered up.
I've been gaslit, lied to, medical records changed, clinical timeline falsified, perverting the course of justice and victimised.
West Yorkshire Police stalled 9 months before starting a bodged investigation.
I'm failed by the system.
8 more were raped and 6 sexually assaulted, same hospital.
⚠️All no charged
I took to @X to speak out.
My name is Michelle.

James Blunt defends young people who don’t want to join the Army and blasts politicians for dividing us
James Blunt was on LBC with Nick Ferrari talking about his time in the Army, he said he completely understands why young people today don’t want to join up or fight for the country. He also called out today’s politicians for dividing us:
“Politicians try to divide us so extremely nowadays” forcing everyone to pick a side on left or right, Leave or Remain, and every other manufactured extreme.
He’s right to call it out. This is classic divide and conquer. Modern politicians deliberately split us by race, religion, sex, gender, class, and culture wars so we’re too busy fighting each other to notice them fleecing us, taxing us into the ground, and keeping ordinary people struggling while they look after their own.
If we actually stopped fighting each other and turned on those in power, they wouldn’t stand a chance. They’d have no choice but to start serving the public instead of themselves. But while we’re all distracted tearing each other apart, they get away with it, which is exactly why they keep doing it.
