Is the 'vibe shift' real? Or are we kidding ourselves that we are past “peak woke”?

Bestselling novelist Lionel Shriver joins the Free Speech Union’s general secretary Lord Young to explain why the 'long war' on free speech is just beginning.

They discuss

*Immigration: the subject of Lionel’s latest novel “A Better Life” and why immigration has become the litmus test for progressives.

*The Trans Debate: Why Lionel is resisting the urge to write the "predictable" trans novel. *Ideological Conformism: The chilling reason why most intellectuals choose "ideological collusion" over truth.

* Political Violence: Reaction to the murder of Charlie Kirk and the rising temperature of the far-left.

Journalist Janet Murray tells Connie Shaw how her views about trans impacted her community choir. The "Singing Striders" were dropped by disability charity Scope from performing at the London Marathon. Scope objected to Janet's views, even though they were unrelated to her work with the choir. Scope backed down at the last minute, but too late for the show to go on. The choir row is just the latest attack Janet has suffered in a long campaign against her. #freespeech #transgender #ukpolitics
