Australia

Australia does not have explicit freedom of speech in any constitutional or statutory declaration of rights, with the exception of political speech which is protected from criminal prosecution at common law.

The Australian people want and need Free Speech. The Prime Minister needs to call a referendum to have this changed.

As a citizen of the Commonwealth of Australia, I call on our Prime Minister to declare a nation wide referendum to amend the Constitution to give all Australians Freedom of Speech.
