🚨BREAKING: West Midlands Police have AGAIN targeted Isabel Vaughan-Spruce. Changing tact from going after her prayers, they now claim her “mere presence” is “harassment”. Nobody should be banned from a public area just because of their beliefs. THIS is two-tier policing.

🚨Today, the EU takes a significant step toward strengthening online censorship, transforming the "Code of Conduct on Disinformation" into a mandatory part of the Digital Services Act. The DSA threatens free speech across the world and must be repealed.

🇧🇷 Time and again in Brazil, we have seen the silencing of political voices, citizens, journalists, or anyone who offers different viewpoints from those in power. We must continue to push back against this censorship. All Brazilians deserve the right to speak freely.

The banning of X and targeting of @elonmusk @shellenberger @marcelvanhattem and others is symptomatic of a severe endemic problem. Per recent surveys, the majority of Brazilians are afraid to share their views in public.
