ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.
The Oxford Union is deeply grateful and encouraged by the messages of support in response to our determination to uphold free speech. During our 200 year history, many have tried to shut us down. As the effects of self-imposed censorship on university campuses, social media and the arts show no signs of dissipating, the importance of upholding free speech remains as critical today as it did when we were founded in 1823. Your support is critical in enabling The Oxford Union to continue its mission without interruption and without interference. You can support the Oxford Union here: oxford-union.org/supportus

Please can you at least include the order of speeches in the video title..?! Impossible to follow otherwise and figuring it out via the descriptions has left me too frustrated to bother watching Even better would be to upload the videos in chronological order…

A wise man once said? Is that not from the Bible? Was the quote not from Jesus Christ ?

Lol. Critiques shouldn't happen to public figures in the msgs. It's no wonder the talking class wants us to be quiet. And the talking class is that of the TV celebs mingled with the political class. Today they are barely indistinguishable from each other. Tho they have never been apart. It used to be prieats and nobles protecting the top from us and our says. Now it's C D E celebs and politicians nobody likes who does that job.
