The Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner has said the free speech warnings over the government’s “banter ban” is nothing but “made up nonsense” in an attack on the Conservative Party.
Shadow Business Secretary Andrew Griffth and Lord Young the founder of the Free Speech Union have warned the Bill could cause problems with freedom of expression within the UK.
Lord Young wrote for GB News warning the “ban banter in pubs, restaurants, bars, entertainment venues and football stadiums”.
The Shadow Business Secretary called it the “unemployment rights bill.”
Rayner told the Mirror, “Nobody should be abused while doing their job, but we’ve seen a horrific rise in violent abuse and harassment of shop workers and other public facing staff.
The Tories can’t defend their opposition to the action this Labour Government is taking to protect workers, so they’ve resorted to spreading made-up nonsense.
“It’s the same old Tories – they’re on the side of bad bosses, zero-hours contracts and fire-and-rehire.”
