Reform UK has vowed to end “militant cancel culture” at universities within 100 days of winning the Welsh Parliament Election following Bangor’s decision to ban Sarah Pochin.
Mr Thomas said: “Our universities should be places of free and open discussion across the political spectrum.
“Under my leadership, Reform UK will introduce legislation within the first 100 days of forming a government in Wales to put an end to the militant cancel culture and no-platforming in universities.
“These will be the strongest higher education free speech protections in the United Kingdom. That’s real change for Wales.”
GB News understands Reform UK’s legislation will be enforced by a “statutory tort”, allowing civil claims for any breach of the duty.
However, Reform UK’s push to go further than current legislative measures also includes extending beyond Medr’s powers under the Tertiary Education and Research (Wales) Act 2022.
