Here is the full document. I am going to go through it now.

Yep. This is also a point strongly made in @andrewdoyle_com's new book on Free Speech which I am halfway through and am pretty sure I will be recommending as a primer for the alarming number of people who seem confused about what free speech is & why it is good.
Well, good! Conservatives have not been great at this historically so I must give credit where it is due. I really wish this were a left-wing government taking this progressive stance.

(Areo has a piece forthcoming on why supporting FoS is inherently progressive, btw)
Yes, sadly this is true. I currently have half a dozen cases where people are being penalised for trying to express unorthodox views in the academy.
However, I should also say that one case in which I helped a student prepare for an ethical review when she had already been made aware her views were problematic (she wanted to treat people as individuals) was a resounding success & she passed it. So there is still hope.
Yes, there are appropriate and inappropriate repercussions for expressing ideas. Being thought an idiot or contemptible = fine. Being harassed, intimidated, penalised or fired = unacceptable.
Yep, I recommend yet again that you all read Jonathan Rauch's Kindly Inquisitors. If you remain unconvinced that freedom of speech is the best protection for minorities after this, I will despair of you. Unless you have a better argument, of course. Not seen one yet.
Important distinction. It's why we must allow CSJ ideas to be expressed without intimidation too. It's the only way to beat them. But they must submit themselves to the marketplace of ideas and accept legitimate disagreement is possible & not a moral failing or wilful blindness
Hmmm. I think Student Unions must be able to be political but they shouldn't be able to enforce only one political view and ban all the others.
This is sensible but it relies upon a reasonable interpretation of "likely to stir up hatred." I remember Maryam Namazie being accused of this for criticising Islamism which is surely an argument that must be able to be made.
Yes, emboldening the majority to speak out in defence of freedom of speech is a primary aim of @Counter_Weight_
Well, yes, radical feminists get deplatformed & disinvited now for being "TERFs" & they are usually pretty far left. Also Maryam Namazie as mentioned above & she's a communist. Also me & I'm a liberal leftie. This isn't a straightforward left vs right issue.
Yes, we need to create a culture that actively recognises freedom of belief and speech not only as a vital individual right but as a way to advance knowledge & make moral progress. It's what universities are FOR.
This free speech champion needs to be politically neutral or, as this is practically impossible, for there to be a board of them with diverse viewpoints.
I agree with this. I may actually be dealing with a case of this right now although I need more information to be sure the student was failed for disagreeing with the orthodoxy. If so, we shall go to bat for her.
I was disinvited from a Decolonise STEM symposium because I intended to argue that saying that STEM is a white way of thinking is actually a bit racist. This view of mine endangered the safety of other attendees, apparently. I wasn't a 'visiting speaker' though.
This all seems very reasonable and to acknowledge the right to deny a platform to people whose speech incites violence either directly or by being incendiary. (This doesn't include things like believing 'woman' to be a biological category, CSJ activists)
Yes, good. People must oppose speech with speech, not with violence or intimidation or by drowning it out. FFS, stop making me approve of Conservative plans, alleged lefties. This is what we should be protecting.

The TL; DR version is they, by military force, and illegitimate legislature, amended the constitution against the will of The People and legally tricked us into becoming unwitting indentured slaves of human capital and resources to THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA the corporation)

Republic vs Democracy
-They needed to get away from the Republic and create a Democracy in order to drive us towards socialism and inevitably a dictatorship (National Socialist Party aka NAZI)

Labour Grandees are listed in Sir Keir Starmer's colleague Jeffrey Epstein's ''Little Black Book''; Blair, Mandelson and Alastair Campbell. COINCIDENTLY, Keir Starmer and some of the same people have connections to ANOTHER of the worlds most prolific peadophiles. #StarmerOut


Starmer failed to bring charges against Jimmy Savile for paedophilia. The decision was made despite the Crown Prosecution Service receiving substantial evidence of his crimes from witnesses and victims several years before Savile died in 2011. #StarmerOut

With a past like hers, Margaret Hodge might show a bit more humility.
In the Eighties Hodge was aware of previous child sex abuse in the care homes for which she was responsible, and did nothing about it. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut

As leader of Islington Council, a post she held from 1982-92, Margaret Hodge was aware of previous, horrendous child sex abuse in the care homes for which she was responsible, and did nothing about it. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut #CSA

She was guilty of rather more than a casual failure of oversight. In an open letter to the BBC after it investigated a range of monstrous abuse (child prostitution, torture, alleged murders), Hodge libelled one of its victims as “seriously disturbed”. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut

இது சூரிய குலத்தில் உதித்த இராமபிரானுக்கு தமிழ் முனிவர் அகத்தியர் உபதேசித்ததாக வால்மீகி இராமாயணத்தில் வருகிறது. ஆதித்ய ஹ்ருதயத்தைத் தினமும் ஓதினால் பெரும் பயன் பெறலாம் என மகான்களும் ஞானிகளும் காலம் காலமாகக் கூறி வருகின்றனர். ராம-ராவண யுத்தத்தை


தேவர்களுடன் சேர்ந்து பார்க்க வந்திருந்த அகத்தியர், அப்போது போரினால் களைத்து, கவலையுடன் காணப்பட்ட ராமபிரானை அணுகி, மனிதர்களிலேயே சிறந்தவனான ராமா போரில் எந்த மந்திரத்தைப் பாராயணம் செய்தால் எல்லா பகைவர்களையும் வெல்ல முடியுமோ அந்த ரகசிய மந்திரத்தை, வேதத்தில் சொல்லப்பட்டுள்ளதை உனக்கு

நான் உபதேசிக்கிறேன், கேள் என்று கூறி உபதேசித்தார். முதல் இரு சுலோகங்கள் சூழ்நிலையை விவரிக்கின்றன. மூன்றாவது சுலோகம் அகத்தியர் இராமபிரானை விளித்துக் கூறுவதாக அமைந்திருக்கிறது. நான்காவது சுலோகம் முதல் முப்பதாம் சுலோகம் வரை ஆதித்ய ஹ்ருதயம் என்னும் நூல். முப்பத்தி ஒன்றாம் சுலோகம்

இந்தத் துதியால் மகிழ்ந்த சூரியன் இராமனை வாழ்த்துவதைக் கூறுவதாக அமைந்திருக்கிறது.
ஐந்தாவது ஸ்லோகம்:
ஸர்வ மங்கள் மாங்கல்யம் ஸர்வ பாப ப்ரநாசனம்
சிந்தா சோக ப்ரசமனம் ஆயுர் வர்த்தனம் உத்தமம்
பொருள்: இந்த அதித்ய ஹ்ருதயம் என்ற துதி மங்களங்களில் சிறந்தது, பாவங்களையும் கவலைகளையும்


குழப்பங்களையும் நீக்குவது, வாழ்நாளை நீட்டிப்பது, மிகவும் சிறந்தது. இதயத்தில் வசிக்கும் பகவானுடைய அனுக்ரகத்தை அளிப்பதாகும்.
