A 48 sheet poster, printed and promoted by the police, that contradicts UK law. It’s no wonder people are being harassed on the streets for eating a sandwich, when we let these away with making up the law, rather than upholding it.
U.K. court of appeal ruled Dec 18, 2020 that we have precisely the right to offend. Two senior judges have ruled that “free speech encompasses the right to offend and indeed abuse another”… “freedom only to speak inoffensively is not worth having.”t.co/bBqCkmNGEY
