The value of free speech and informed opinions
In the UK, freedom of speech is a cherished right, one that allows us to express our opinions and engage in healthy debate. However, with this freedom comes the responsibility to ensure our opinions are informed and not merely a regurgitation of sensationalist headlines or biased narratives.
The rise of fake news and the influence of right-winged newspapers have made it increasingly challenging to discern fact from fiction. It is essential to approach information critically, seeking out reliable sources and diverse perspectives.
