On YouTube: the most important liberty 11
Here is the video of Professor Simon Heffer delivering the Third Jillian Becker Annual Lecture on February 3, 2020. (For written extracts from the speech, see our post of a few days ago, The most important liberty.)
The subject of each lecture has to be concerned with the importance of individual freedom and/or the importance of the nation state as the only reliable protector of individual freedom.
Professor Heffer’s subject is freedom of speech.
The opening remarks are addressed to Simon Richards, CEO of The Freedom Association, under whose auspices the lectures are given. He is now retiring from the job which he has done superlatively well. Under his direction, The Freedom Association contributed substantially to the historic achievement of Brexit.
