On this episode of British Thought Leaders, we speak with Harry Miller, a retired police officer from Humberside. Harry was investigated by his own local force over posts he made on Twitter and ended up challenging the police in court.
In a landmark ruling, the Court of Appeal said that Harry’s rights to freedom of expression had been violated and that his treatment could have a “chilling effect on public debate”.
Harry is now the CEO of Fair Cop, an organisation representing individuals who are concerned about police attempts to criminalise people for expressing opinions that don’t contravene any laws.
