Anatomy Lecture Theatre (K6.23), Strand Campus
Overview
The Government wants to be able to veto and ban those they deem ‘extremist’ from speaking at universities and other publicly funded bodies. How closely should universities work with security services? Is freedom of speech absolute or are the new terror laws an infringement too far?
Rick Edwards will host You Talk, They Listen: Freedom of Speech live at King's with a panel of experts and Guardian writers.
We'll explore the issue of freedom of speech on campus and how the next Government could help.
