Whisky, Free Speech and Discrimination Law
After receiving our first ever gift from a listener of a bottle of scotch, Andrew explains how whisky is made and what makes a good one.
We then talk about free speech and whether it’s ever right to have any restrictions on it.
The Darren Grimes incident of the last week shows just how far the police are willing to overreach on this front, but is it right that we even have laws on incitement?
Are there really any free speech absolutists? Does anyone ever argue from a point of principle?
And how does the Equalitys Act 2010 have relevance to the choice of lockdown and whether the government can adopt Focused Protection, as advocated by the Great Barrington Declaration?
Would locking down only the old and infirm have been unlawful? Was that a serious factor in why lockdowns have been regional and not based on age?
