No, not to whomever they like. There is no right to harass people or make them listen to you. People have been arrested for general tweets, facebook posts and youtube videos.
No, they don't. They want governments not to punish people for speech. Schools can still punish bullies. Employers can still fire them.

You’re not listening to me. Do you know what the ECHR is? They are effectively asking for Art. 10 to be made absolute. If that was the case, schools could not stop bullies from saying anything they wanted. By doing so it would be the same as killing them (Art. 2).

Show me. The ECHR wants to stop schools tackling bullies?

Not currently, that’s my point. This petition would cause it.

Don't be so silly. Best case scenario, the government has to debate making a free speech act and getting rid of hate speech laws. They are very unlikely to say 'I know! Lets take control of schools away from teachers too!'

If they do, I will oppose this, but things are going the opposite way. A proper freedom of speech law like the American 1st amendment would stop the government from arresting people for their ideas but would not overrule codes of conduct in schools & workplaces
