ABSTRACT
However, freedo m of expression is a wid er term than freedom of speech as it incorporates and embraces other forms of imparting and receiving information regardless of the medium through which th is is done. T he general approach of th e common law is that people are free and at
liberty to do or say anything that is not actually forbidden by law. T here is no requirement in English law that people sho uld be allowed to think, say or do things only to th e extent justified by law.
