Phillipson describes herself as a Roman Catholic, you know, one of the followers of that well known genocide supporter, Jesus Christ. Incidentally, the "previous minister in the last government" she refers to, is non other than the demented Gillian "I've done a fucking good job because everyone else has sat on their arse and done nothing" Keegan, so happy bedfellows on this.

The previous government’s legislation on freedom of speech may have facilitated “hate speech including Holocaust denial” to spread on university campuses, the Education Secretary has said.
Bridget Phillipson announced that the Government would be pausing the implementation of the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act 2023 to consider other options including its potential repeal.
The Act was introduced by the previous Tory government and sought to place a duty to “secure” and “promote the importance of” freedom of speech and could have seen universities and student unions fined for failing to do so.
Ms Phillipson told the Commons during education questions that the Act had been put on hold “precisely because we believe in academic freedom, and it is therefore crucial that the legal framework is workable”...
...“Many of these principles are already enshrined in law, but I want to make sure that we get this right, and I am confident that (Mr Mohindra) would not want to be in a position where the Act might have opened up the potential for hate speech, including Holocaust denial, to be spread on campus, something that the previous minister in the last government was unable to rule out.”...
