Index on Censorship visited the British Youth Council’s Convention for the north-east to hear what they thought about the key free speech issues of the moment.

The two groups looked at our Draw the Line question for the month “Should the police do more to protect free speech?” and quickly realised that there was a delicate balance between the need to keep the peace and the police’s over-involvement in what people can and cannot say or do. Here are some of the responses of the group:

Support free expression for all

 

At Index on Censorship, we believe everyone deserves the right to speak freely, challenge power and share ideas without fear. In a world where governments tighten control and algorithms distort the truth, defending those rights is more urgent than ever.

But free speech is not free. Instead we rely on readers like you to keep our journalism independent, our advocacy sharp and our support for writers, artists and dissidents strong.

If you believe in a future where voices aren’t silenced, help us protect it.
