Facist government trying to gag people

Ah good so does that mean they will publish their own Brexit Impact Assessment under Free Speech Laws? 🤷‍♂️

About time... Lozza Fox or Toby Young would be good choices..

It’ll be yet another failed politician, who’ll then go on to get a seat in the unelected fucking Lords.

Mr 'Go away and shut up'

That's not how free speech works, GavinWilliamson

Oh. When's the u-turn scheduled for?

Which friend/relative/party donor will it be?

Not just a moron ...but an oxymoron no less

Didn't the nazis have something similar?

This Section 28 coming back in, in a different form? Teachers refusing to teach LGBTQ+ history due to their religion and pupils writing literature rejecting the rights of BAME and LGBTQ+ as it’s not of their way of thinking. All under the name of Free Speech!

There’s nothing ‘free speech’ about sanctioning intelligence. Smells largely of fascism to me.

Why doesn’t the U.K. have an explicit unchallengeable right to freedom of speech?

Gavin Williamson is part of a gov't that has attacked experts at every opportunity. This dismissing of academic research has contributed to the deaths of 100k+ people. Gavin Williamson's voting record is available at

Those radicalised by 'CRT' suddenly find they will be the ones paying the price for their own EXTREAMIST views! When you start a 'CULTURE WAR' don't be surprised when you end up on the losing side. ~ Wokeism is a Mind Virus.

From the party putting Tories in key media jobs including Ofcom. Fuck off Gavin.

Concentrate your, very, limited abilities on actually opening educational establishments first!!!

Nazis everywhere will be cheering. What was the point of grandad being blown up by a mortar, defending something given away so easily by this government of traitors and spivs?

Please tell me that people 'liking' this tweet are doing so whilst also pissing themselves like me.....

From the party who supress reports and FOI requests.

Straight from the Victor Orbán playback. The champions of authoritarianism always clamp down on academic freedom. Who's next, I wonder?

Aka permission to spread lies about covid, be racist and sexist

He needs to resign

Gavin Williamson says investing in teacher training is 'crucial'Gavin Williamson said investment in the next generation of teachers is 'crucial' to the Government's recovery plans and closing the attainment gap between children. Make sure they are not all ‘wokey cokeys’ eager to teach the next generation how to despise their own culture, history & heritage. Make it easier for people without degrees to get qualified teacher status. As long as they don’t use cartoon imagery in RE lessons? The lack of support the teacher from Batley has had would certainly make me think twice about becoming a teacher.
