Fair points. Law enforcement on this issue seems to be all over the place in the UK.

Other than some spicy rhetoric, it's not clear what politicians are doing to change this in any direction.

I am utterly unqualified to opine on UK politics and their approach to free expression in general. It's baffling to me as an outsider what issues become salient.
