Hampshire Police in Britain have scrapped a scheme which obliged people either to go on what free speech campaigners have described as a “reeducation course” for hate crimes—sexist, racist, homophobic, or transphobic material posted on social media—or face prosecution.
The training courses are run by an organisation called Restorative Solutions paid for by Hampshire Constabulary’s Police and Crime Commissioner’s (PCC’s) budget and therefore by the taxpayer.
