Bayes Business School (formerly Cass) Contrarian Prize Jemima Kelly Financial Times City Journalism Cindy Yu The Spectator City, University of London Thanks to André Spicer and Ali Miraj for inviting me to tonight's Contrarian debate on the limits of free speech. It was rowdy at times but no one came to any (visible) harm, which is quite an achievement in these fraught and febrile times.

Very stimulating and pointed discussion on “Freedom of Speech and Censorship: Examining the Tensions Between Open Discourse and Harmful Content” this evening Bayes Business School (formerly Cass) with Toby Young Jemima Kelly Mark Honigsbaum chaired by Cindy Yu #cprize

Contrarians rail against the subjugation of diversity of thought. They refuse to be silenced, cowed or bought off. They are an essential part of what makes our society advance, and they also add much needed spice to public discourse.
