The Labour Government has said it will “stop further commencement” of the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act 2023, legislation that protects the right to expression of pro-life students and others on UK campuses.
An anonymous petition has tried but so far failed to cancel the Manchester Pro-Life Society. SPUC, which has condemned the petition, continues to defend pro-life students’ legal right to free speech “currently under threat from intolerant students”.
