UK does not have Freedom of Speech.

  It does if your reference point is Saudi Arabia.

    The UK is number one for wrong-speech arrests.

      Saudi Arabia is one of the world leaders by number of death sentences. They have no qualms with putting you to death or giving you life imprisonment for all sorts of things, including "wrong-speech" in the form of leaving the state religion, or opposing the government. The UK isn't some shining beacon of freedom by Western standards, but it's not even in the same universe as Saudi Arabia.

        At least Saudi Arabia has a positive trajectory. SA parents can genuinely see improvements in their kids lifetime. Compared to whatever tf the UK thinks it’s doing. Why should UK citizens want their government to invest in infrastructure and defence capabilities if they’re just handing same to radical Islamists.
