Counter-extremism law and liberal values
Having just read the piece by Jonathan Dimbleby discussing the proposed anti-terrorism legislation where he propagates the notion that the laws being suggested are an attack on one of our “most fundamental of principles” (For freedom of speech, these are troubling times, 21 September), I have to say to him and all those who follow his line of reasoning that they are wrong.
The proposed laws are to protect our fundamental principles of freedom – freedom of speech, freedom to believe in whichever religion (or none at all), and most importantly our right to life.
