"Allan Hogarth, Amnesty’s head of policy and government affairs, said: “It’s a step too far to ban materials which question an economic model such as capitalism."
“The only extreme view here is the one which suggests that it's somehow illegitimate to even consider the validity of socio-economic systems other than the prevailing one – a system that has of course only been in existence for a comparatively short period of time.”
"And Andrew Scattergood, Momentum co-chair, accused the government of its own “cancel culture” – the accusation levelled at leftwingers in universities – saying: “The guidance references our fundamental rights to free speech."
“The Tories think they can get away with banning those rights when it comes to speech that criticises the economic system that makes them and their billionaire mates richer at the expense of working class people.”
