I’ve explained this either here or on another thread.
Reform, or anyone refusing to to speak to anyone, excluding certain journalists is not a restriction of free speech. If you don’t understand that, you don’t understand free speech.
Free speech is also the freedom not to speak to certain people you don’t want to.
Forcing people to speak to people, is the opposite of free speech.

Not only daft but, apparently, unlawful. Which is worrying.
