Freedom of Speech and Censorship, A Threat to Independent Media in the UK
Freedom of speech is the cornerstone of any democratic society. It ensures that individuals and organizations can express their thoughts, opinions, and truths without fear of persecution or suppression.

Why Social Media Is Endangering Our Children, Urgent Action Is Needed
Social media is not an innocent pastime for children; it is a powerful, addictive force that can shape their self-worth, behaviour, and future in dangerous ways. Without immediate action, more young lives will be damaged or lost, and the cycle of harm will continue unchecked. The responsibility lies with all of us, parents, schools, lawmakers, and tech companies, to act now. Banning phones in schools, enforcing strict age verification, and introducing robust child-safety laws are not optional measures; they are urgent necessities. We cannot afford to wait for another tragedy to spur change. The time to protect our children is today.

The Silencing of a Nation: Is Free Speech Under Threat in the UK?
Free speech is the cornerstone of any functioning democracy. It gives people the right to express opinions, challenge authority, expose injustice, and hold those in power accountable.
