I think they still have injunctions against ex post facto laws ... though the Left would probably get rid of those eventually.
The Brits, i.e., real Brits, need their own “right to keep and bear arms”. Without which there is no free speech or any other freedoms.
If a nation has ‘hate speech’ laws, it does not have freedom of speech.
If a nation does not have free speech, it is not free.
Get the US out of NATO and US troops out of Europe. There are no free Western European countries left and they are not worth the American blood and treasure required to defend them.
Between hostile Muslims everywhere & sanctimonious Brits denouncing our “lax gun laws”, what’s to see?
Anti-Americanism among Brits is said to be so bad that Yank tourists now wear Canadian flags to explain their accents.
Let’s be honest. This is their government protecting Muslims from criticism after they were found out covering up Muslim rape gangs for years.
After ignoring Muslim rapists for years, they’re already rapidly reacting to criticism of Muslim rape gangs and Muslim migrant crime in general out of the same misplaced compassion, though silencing their critics is also a factor.

True that. And this sort of thing is not limited to Europe. We are already seeing ‘hate speech’ laws on US college campuses. Say something non-PC there, and you will be sanctioned.
Will this some day become encoded into US law? I suppose so. It is illegal to yell “fire” in a crowded theater, as it might cause someone to get hurt in the ensuing panic.
Eventually liberal judges will decide that criticizing, say, Muslims should also be illegal, as it might cause someone to go out and hurt a Muslim.
Hahahahahahaha! Yeah, sure, the first time one of the council’s spouses or kids get into trouble that ruling will be tossed.
So the Nazis won the Second World War in England?
The Nazis, and their allies.

At which point we should start hurting US Judges.
The UK imprisoned thousands of Catholics and Non-Anglican Protestants in the 17th Century. It is why so many sects sought freedom in the North American wilderness.
Good point. But, this time it isnt internecine infighting but the world against Christians which Jesus and Paul also warned about. We seem to have come full circle. Interesting times indeed.
What is offensive online post? Could an American be arrested if I post that ‘Prince Harry is a moron’ or if I post ‘Ms May is never going to be mistaken for Maggie’ or if I post ‘English Muzzies are TERRORISTS’? Will I get arrested or get arrested if I post it in the USA? Here’s an offensive post, English morons, ‘F you, jackasses!!’
