UK - Free Speech - Speakers' Corner

A man argues about race and equality with one of the speakers. Speakers' Corner is an area where public speaking is allowed. The original and most noted is in the north-east corner of Hyde Park in London, England. Speakers there are allowed to speak as long as the police consider their speeches lawful. Contrary to popular belief, there is no immunity from the law, nor are any subjects forbidden, but in practice the police tend to be tolerant and therefore only intervene when they receive a complaint or if they hear profanity.
