Original Note:
The UK has been enforcing hate speech laws decades. Charges and dedicated personnel have increased. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-8537/ While some cases meet the high threshold intent of these laws, others have been for less egregious acts. https://youtu.be/0r7GRx8Sl-s?si=_gwDSlR5VmiS-ywB The reference above lacks context of how these laws have been abused.
