Is speech more restricted in the British Isle than here?

The short answer is yes. Whether the 'marketplace of ideas' is meaningfully crippled is another question, though.

If the difference is that a billionaire here could fill the airwaves with Holocaust deniail propaganda, if he wanted, while the British would stop it, they may be ahead of the game.
