Proceeding contribution from Matt Western (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 June 2022. It occurred during Debate on bill on Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill.
Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill
I read every word. I read them with interest.
Only last week, the HEPI student academic experience survey revealed that a majority of students—64%—either agreed or agreed strongly with the statement:
“I feel comfortable expressing my viewpoint, even if my peers do not agree with me”.
Only 14% disagreed.
