The Free Speech Union (FSU) is a British organisation which advocates freedom of speech. The group was established on 24 February 2020 by British columnist Toby Young.^[1] The organisation views itself as countering cancel culture by opposing hostility on Twitter and the withdrawal of some individuals' invitations to speak at some university events.

The Free Speech Union has been criticised by journalists and former student members, who believe that the FSU has a right-wing agenda and that its stated aims are misleading.^[2]^[3]
