Michael Reiners (@MCRReiners) writes, in 'Why Britain must adopt the Freedom of Speech Bill (2026)':
"A party which suggests such a bill is not required accepts that they are complicit, or content, with continuing censorship & political punishment.
To be charitable, some do not understand how, or why, it is occurring in the first place.
Assuming the latter is true, I will break down core problems the British public face, and, how this bill remedies them."

There is no debate, it is a settled matter.
For those having difficulty, the learned @Tom_Rowsell explains what an Englishman is - here - in @ReinersProject :

@PositivFuturist Given this tweet, you may enjoy this essay – from 2024 – which weaves these threads together coherently. Good tailoring is the only remedy for what appear to be separate grievances.

British speech law: "Why have the Lotus Eaters not been arrested yet?" asks Dan Tubb (@Kingbingo_).
We discuss how having an independent platform is one of the few affordable defences to censorial law.
For the rest, the @ASI Freedom of Speech Bill (2026) offers a permanent fix
You can film people, and things.
Especially UK police.
Ensure you are keeping a record of every interaction you are forced to have with police as a lawful person in Britain – it will be needed later. An explanation of that is contained on @ReinersProject here: https://t.co/eVk5fk8KNc
Freedom of speech, UK:
@lotuseaters_com discuss The Freedom of Speech Bill (2026), published by @ASI.
Speech legislation has led to a 'two-tier' society. No party is addressing this issue sophisticatedly.
My co-authors @prestonjbyrne & @legalstyleblog have provided solutions.
In Britain, 1/5th of all recorded crime (approximately 1.2million incidents) relates to speech & expression.
That number does not even account for regulatory & employment law issues arising from the policing of speech.
From my interview with Dan Tubb of @lotuseaters_com (link below).
Whether she knows it or not, Cathy Newman attempted to make @ZiaYusufUK say that that the Public Order Act 1986 Part III Section 19 is engaged by Farage's comments on the killing of Henry Nowak.
That is the act, and section, under which Lucy Connolly (@LucyTCWife) was coerced to plead guilty to in 2024 – it is an offence of stirring 'hated' in the mind of an imaginary observer.
Farage must stand by his comments and Reform must commit to repealing the laughable speech restrictions imposed by The Public Order Act 1986.
The model Freedom of Speech Bill, from @ASI, explains how to go about this, among many other things; it appears to me that Reform's senior people keep butting up against the problems which our bill solves: https://t.co/6ghszkTump
My appearance on @lotuseaters_com, to discuss Britain's speech & expression laws – and precisely how to repair them – is timely.
Following the Nowak protests, we are likely to see the Public Order Act (1986) invoked and "the full force of the law", as it currently stands, brought down upon the Englishman for petitioning the state for redress of his grievances.
Reform has pledged to repeal the Online Safety Act and the Equality Act, and likely also intends to bin the Human Rights Act.
You gotta stand *for* something, tho - and replace these laws with something better.
Might I suggest a Freedom of Speech Act?

Britain's press refuse to report on the stark realities unfolding in the country due to the Public Order Act (1986).
Ofcom's code embeds it; preventing all-but positive discussion of ethnicity at Section Three.
From rape gangs to abrupt demographic change. Our "Free Press" 's silence is explainable in law.

With the model Free Speech Act due for publication on April 1st, this article, from 2025, makes the case for why one is necessary.
The Public Order Act (1986), Online Safety Act (2023) have become tools to prune sensible men from our institutions, and punish the concerned working classes who look on.

In about an hour Sir Keir Starmer will deliver a statement on the Southhampton protests almost identical to this one, given in 2024. Starmer was most comfortable as Director of Public Prosecutions, and continues that role to this day unofficially.
For those unaware, yesterday's Southhampton protests were in response to the death of Henry Novak, due in part to 'anti-racist' policing practices – what politicians from @RobertJenrick to @NJ_Timothy have settled upon calling 'two tier' policing.
Here is the bingo card for Keir's statement:
-Condemnation and dismissal of white working class concerns as thuggery or mindless disorder
-Mention of The Full Force Of The Law
-The dangers of information online
-Equivalence drawn between online speech and physical disorder
-Non-specific pledge to tackle 'knife crime'
-Discussion of how police must be protected from the public
-Bonus: Another road runner impression?
On “the full force of the law”:
Good morning. Today we will hear the phrase “full force of the law” repeated in press releases and in speeches by @Keir_Starmer. Let us take a moment to examine that phrase, which has become synonymous with the prosecutorial tone of Starmer’s government.
Legislation (primary law) must be interpreted in terms of the intention at its time of creation. Using the “full force” of any given law is rarely how legislation was intended to be used, but rather, how it can be maximally wielded. Starmer is still governing as DPP. The Public Order Act 1986, s4, 4A, 5 and Part III are the Starmer gov’s favourite tool in this regard, and will be used to arrest, and inconvenience, those identified at yesterday’s vigil, and, those posting forceful complaint about both the protest itself and the institutional anti-racism which killed Mr Henry Nowak. All sections of the POA mentioned must without question be repealed by any future administration.
“The full force of the law” will be invoked today to discredit the valid and growing grievances of the native populace of Britain, deeming them racist - a label that will justify anything from destitution (employment and regulatory law) to subjection to death & violence, by way of loss of liberty (criminal law).
An example of a time in which the “full force” of a law was not the intention of a law: Nadine Dorries – the MP who introduced the Online Safety Act (2023) to parliament – now deems it to require full repeal upon seeing its maximalist implementation under this Labour government.
Last month's model Freedom of Speech Bill, published by @asi, is an example of how to protect the ordinary man’s expression of grievance from “the full force of the law” - it repeals the laws routinely used to bludgeon him: https://t.co/6ghszkTump
The Southport Riots provide the Starmer government a template – a playbook – one which will characterise their reaction to protests surrounding death of Henry Nowak.
Their overreach – in attempting to discredit the Englishman's valid grievances – will be their undoing.

Sir Keir Starmer continues to govern as if he is the Director of Public Prosecutions.
"Starmer is an awkward man, and in his political and legal life proved to be most in-his-element on two occasions:
1) When campaigning for a second EU referendum.
2) When prosecuting the London rioters, of 2011, in shotgun-trials as DPP.
One wonders which of these two comfort-blankets will characterise his duration as PM. Prosecutors do not make for compelling leaders, as has been neatly demonstrated by Kamala Harris."

Excellent to sit down with Dan Tubb (@Kingbingo_) of @lotuseaters_com to discuss the dismal state of freedom of speech in Britain, and, our proposed solution to that problem:The Freedom of Speech Bill (2026) – published by @ASI in April.

The Public Order Act (1986), for these reasons and more, is one of the key pieces of legislation reccomended for repeal in our 2026 Freedom of Speech Bill.
Correct our restrictive speech landscape, and much other change will follow.
