Conservative — West Suffolk

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 October 2024

Debate

Universities: Freedom of Speech

Contribution

I appreciate the Minister’s constructive tone. She says that she does not want this to be a culture war issue. When the pause was announced by the Secretary of State, special advisers in her Department described the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act to the media as a Tory “hate speech charter”. Will the Minister disown those comments?
