Novara FM: Does the Palestine Action Ban Signal the Decline of Liberalism in Britain? w/ Simon Childs

Update: 2025-07-24

Description

Is the UK still a liberal country? With terrorism laws criminalising speech around Palestine Action, it’s a serious question.

A growing gulf between public opinion and state policy on Gaza reveals a liberal order in decline.

Richard Hames spoke to Simon Childs about where our society is going.
