This is a normal post No specific issue
but just go to your news site of choice and search for 'hate crime' for numerous examples. The Nazi dog and the recent rap lyric cases are the obvious ones. BTW, you should be careful, under current UK law if anyone reported it your last post would very likely be recorded as a 'non-crime hate incident' by your local police force. With regards to the press and protests, super injunctions and dispersal orders mean these are also not complete freedoms.

This is a normal post But now you aren't making the distinction
Between freedom of speech and breaking the law (hate crime does break the law). However, without a specific example of where the freedom of speech right has not been exercised (without breaking the law) then you are deliberately making this discussion impossible.

This is a normal post Of course it breaks the law
That's the bit that means we don't have freedom of speech. We don't have freedom of speech because you can be punished for things that you say.

It's that simple. The UK doesn't have freedom of speech.

This is a normal post Okay, you're an idiot
It's the definition of freedom of speech that matters not your interpretation of it
