Closed Repeal hate speech laws other than advocating for violence

Closed on

I want parliament to remove all hate speech laws except ones that advocate for violence due to the fact that the freedom of speech should be a basic human right.

I believe that the government should do this as disclosing your opinion on something is the way to fix problems and the fact that people are not given the freedom to do that does more bad than good. Free speech is recognised in many countries and I believe this is the only way to go forward in our great nation.
