Is political violence on the rise in the West?

CUFSS are delighted to be hosting journalist and presenter Patrick Christys on the 14th November for a discussion on the rise of political violence in the West, the growing hostility towards right-of-centre views, and the increasingly serious consequences for those who dare to express them.

Patrick will explain what he has been investigating and how this led to threats against himself and his family. Importantly, we will discuss the extent to which media coverage and political rhetoric may have contributed to an environment in which expressing certain views can carry increasingly serious personal risks.

Join us for an evening of candid discussion and a close examination of the state of free expression and political debate in the modern West. Most of the event will be an open Q&A, in which we encourage audience members to question and challenge Patrick on any aspect you wish.
