Douglas Murray objects to Keir Starmer's claims that free speech remains widespread in the UK with information about widespread attempts by the government to muzzle people - attempts that have mirrors in other
countries like Australia (and here in Canada). The legislation even has
the same name in different countries, namely the Online Harms Bill.

He also has some fun discussing a meeting between would-be NYC major
Mamdani and Senator Warren.

Looks like the U.S. is the last bastion for free speech left in the world.

Right now, the concern seems to be freedom of *information*.

As usual, I don't know what you're talking about.
the government's importation of millions of Muslims-- whose culture, particularly regarding women, is incompatible with Western civilization-- receiving the knock of doom from Scotland Yard, all the while claiming it's necessary to prevent kids from seeing porn on the internet.
Most of the online comments that have resulted in police inquiry and/or arrest
have nothing to do with either kids or porn, and increasingly aren't even made
online, but outside, vocally, at protests in the streets. It seems rather ludicrous for one to find oneself charged under the Online Harms Act for something that has nothing to do with being online.

I'm personally feeling censorship-like outrage at the Epstein coverup.

Politicians are steam-powered, seizing on whatever brings their own supporters to a boiling point. I assume some swath of UK voters stand
firmly behind any position that finds a voice. Meanwhile, I suggest
there's bias in calling "Muslim *culture* incompatible with Western *civilization*". (Both nouns should actually be "religion"...)

In Islamic countries, the religion *is* both the government and the culture. It's literally a theocracy.
Not so with the Western countries.

Apparently in Canadia, the RCMP is warning people that if you know
someone who believes on traditional values, that's a sign they're a right-wing extremist.

My daughter (who emigrated from Canada to the UK 10 years ago) takes
great delight in living in one of the two constituencies in the UK
held by the Green party. She's leftist but about as anti-woke as it
gets and completely hates identity politics.
(I'll be seeing her on Saturday for the first time in a year or so
when both of us arrive in southern Ontario for a family gathering with
my in-laws)
I'll disagree with you on the last point though one of my favorite
Youtube moments in the last two months was watching Somali born Ayaan
Hirsi Ali telling one ultra-woke gay HAMAS supporter "you DO realize
HAMAS would kill you if you went to Gaza, right?"
