Rowan Atkinson speaks against the word 'insulting' in the UK Public Order Act, as part of the Reform Section 5 campaign. He argues for robust free speech and against the slippery slope of criminalizing offense.
HN commenters point to it as an eloquent defense of free speech with concrete examples of the slippery slope.
