The Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) has claimed a victory in its fight for freedom of speech after a university group apologised for rejecting an event application on the grounds of conflicting values.

Queensland University of Technology’s (QUT) Student Guild told the IPA’s youth group, Generation Liberty, that their application to set up a stall during orientation week in 2020 was denied because the “brand does not align with our values.”
