It is my great pleasure to present to you the Free Speech Union Annual Report for 2024.

It's been yet another huge year with some of our biggest achievements yet.

I really think that together we're making history, and these wins were only possible because of the Free Speech Union and your support.  

As Jonathan says in the report:

"Three years in, and things are just getting
going; there’s a lot of work to be done.
But I am confident that together, New
Zealand is capable of leading the world
as a country that tolerates diversity of
opinions, cherishes free speech, and
sends our would-be-censors packing."

Let me just say on behalf of Jonathan, the other Council members, and our entire team, how genuinely thankful we are for you, and the tens of thousands of New Zealanders who partner with us.

I'm also pleased to announce that our Annual General Meeting will be on Saturday, 9th November in Auckland. We'd love for you to join us. You can RSVP here. 

We are honoured by the trust you place in us, and the investment you make. The stakes remain high, but we're building more momentum than ever before. With your help, we'll go even further still.

Thank you, and enjoy.
