📣🚨 FSU VICTORY! A Scottish FSU member was driving on the M80 with his four-year-old son after a day at an amusement park when another car cut him up, nearly causing a collision. Under his breath, he muttered something racist. The windows were down, but the other driver wasn’t looking at him. The only witness was his young son in the back seat. Convinced the dangerous driver had been drinking, our member contacted the police. They eventually stopped both cars and reviewed his dashcam footage. A week later, the police contacted him to say that an offence had been committed — not by the dangerous driver, but by our member, for words he had muttered under his breath in the privacy of his own car. He was prosecuted for allegedly causing alarm and distress, even though only he and his young son were in the car. It is extraordinary. The Free Speech Union found him an excellent barrister, and he was acquitted by the Justice of the Peace within minutes. This is the closest we have come to defending someone prosecuted for thought crime. This is the extent of police overreach in speech and thought policing. They need to get their priorities straight.
