Jailed for a Tweet | Britain’s Free Speech Crisis | The Liz Truss Show with Lucy Connolly
About this episode
Lucy Connolly discusses her imprisonment and the state of free speech in Britain.
Lucy Connolly joins The Liz Truss Show to discuss her imprisonment, the state of free speech in Britain, two-tier justice, policing, Keir Starmer, Andy Burnham, immigration, the Human Rights Act, protest, the “far right” label, and why she believes ordinary people need to start speaking out. After being jailed over a tweet, Lucy has become one of the most recognisable voices in Britain’s free speech debate. In this interview, she reflects on prison, the courts, the police, media coverage, public support, and her new book, A Tweet Too Far. This is a conversation about more than one case. It is about whether Britain still protects free speech, whether justice is being applied equally, and whether the silent majority is prepared to push back.
