High Court's gag order on Deputy Police Commissioner McSkimming sparks free speech concerns.

The High Court's gag order on reporting allegations against former Deputy Police Commissioner McSkimming, who received a 'super injunction' over his work computer use, is sparking concern. Stephen Franks of the Free Speech Union argues this undermines public trust and the media's role in scrutinizing officials. He warns of risks to citizens' rights to information, especially regarding public officials' conduct.
