No need for bill protecting campus free speech, unis and legal experts say
Universities and legal experts say there is no need for a bill protecting free speech on campus.
But the legislation’s supporters say universities can’t be trusted to uphold freedom of expression.
Parliament’s Education and Workforce Select Committee has been hearing submissions on the Education and Training Amendment Bill (No. 2). If passed, it would require universities to develop a freedom of expression statement and complaints procedure, and report annually on it.
The Law Society told the committee the bill created “needless complexity” because freedom of expression was already protected by law.
It’s so difficult to know who to hate most, The Zionist apologist astroturf Atlas Network supported fake union, The Free Speech Union, or the woke who inspire them.
The hilarity of a white South African lecturing the rest of us about hate speech is funny enough, but watching them try to force Universities to agree to their free speech definitions is even funnier.
The problem is that the gutless, spineless, ball-less Universities allowed the Free Speech Union to have this over them.
Cast your mind back to when the woke ruled and the attempts by gender critical feminists to have debates on campus.
It was the fucking woke who cancelled these debates on campus in NZ…
Massey University backs down from controversial ‘feminist’ event
Massey University has backed down from hosting a controversial feminist event following threats it could loose its Rainbow Tick if it went ahead.
The event, organised by a group called Speak Up 4 Women, sparked fury among the rainbow community for being anti gender self-identification on birth certificates and the inclusion of transgender women in women’s sport.
One of the speakers of the event was going to be Canadian blogger Meghan Murphy, who had been banned from Twitter for violating its hateful conduct policy.
Though the university last month said it did not share the views of the speakers of Feminism 2020, until today it was planned to still go ahead at the Wellington campus in November.
Now, the university says it has advised Speak Up For Women to find an alternative venue for its Feminism 2020 event.
…so let’s not pretend that woke censorship wasn’t a real problem – it was!
Universities have a solemn obligation to be spaces where debate on contentious issues can occur, that the woke managed to cleanse anything their pretty little brains couldn’t cope with should shame us all, especially as it has allowed fucking arseholes like The Zionist apologist astroturf Atlas Network supported fake union to gain leverage.
For the last fucking time, shut up wokies!
If you can’t hear an idea that challenges you, you shouldn’t be at fucking University in the first place!
Thanks to the woke, we now have a Zionist apologist astroturf Atlas Network supported fake union calling the shots and that is incredibly dangerous because as we can see overseas, Universities are increasingly becoming places where any criticism of Israel is being labelled anti-semitic…
Universities threatened with funding cuts under proposed plan to tackle antisemitism in Australia
…that is the exact sort of the culture war that the Free Speech Fake Union and the ACT Party want!
So Universities should lean into protecting Free Speech and find a way that protects criticism of Israel, because that’s where this is all going.
No one gives a fuck about the Trans issue now, they and their Fourth Wave Feminist, middle class dogma have destroyed and burnt every single bridge and no one cares about that as an issue because the Right have totally destroyed us on the Left over that, the issue now is strangling any criticism of Israel on all campuses.
The Right have weaponised Free Speech and are using it to push their agenda and the woke have handed them the cultural ammunition to do that!
Don’t allow the Free Speech Fake Union impose a ‘Free Speech’ code that serves Zionist interests.
Comrades – we are the Left, we should be championing free speech, not repressing it! We can’t allow brittle millennial trigger culture to hand the Right the free speech debate!
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.



Trumpisim is alive and well in NZ today .Luxon is off on another taxpayer funded holiday some where while the 8% PM is turning us into the 51st state of the USA .By the time Luxon wakes up he may well be living in aligator Alcatraz as Seymour will have had him picked up and deported .
Controlling&Silly is exactly what I thought of Ayling ..
Then again I didn’t know that the FSU was new; once I realised, I nearly felt badly for seeking their help.
I now tend to think that any leadership of the FSU can never be quite there — in other words, a great disappointment.
Woke sure does hurt heads.
Can any leader of Woke genuinely avoid becoming Shoke?
Ah well – having underfunded them until their philosophy department closed, the perfidious Right have destroyed our universities anyway – they’re only polytechs now – and the polytechs are only an endrun around work visas to further undermine wages while cost of living blows out.
It would be impossible or Labour to lose the next election if they were not censorious, toxic, and ineffectual.
Bring on the rage virus – this country is done.
Why is having an opinion not allowed? Where is free speech in this. Also seeing some of it relates to actual known reality. What sort of wooses bring in stupid rules similar to those in the UK where they seem to be mingle-mangled in the head about almost everything (behind USA which wins because it comes in with everything_.

She was reprimanded after she made a comment on the intranet in response to news that the department would be providing period products in both male and female bathrooms.
She posted: “This is awesome but a shame it took so long coming. And interesting, now that men can menstruate, free period products are available in IR bathrooms.”
Massof’s manager, Leah Galbraith, became aware when the comment was reported to her by IR’s rainbow network, which said some people were offended and upset… Now I am offended and upset – can I complain against the IRD?
