Sunday Roundup - 5 Oct 2025: The Launch of the Counter-Insurgency
Your weekly update on everything Fighting for a Free Future has been up to over the last week. Thank you for all of your support!
Good afternoon everyone,
Thank you all very much for your continued support of Fighting for a Free Future. We are so proud of the growth we’re continuing to see with Voices for a Free Future and The Insurgency with Steve Baker. We have been so pleased to see many of you continue to shop Fighting for a Free Future merchandise, and we are thankful to all of you who have shared our articles and messages across social media.
In case you missed it, here is everything Fighting for a Free Future has put out over the last week!
The Launch of the Counter-Insurgency
We are pleased to have launched the Counter-Insurgency, the Substack exclusive companion podcast to The Insurgency with Steve Baker. Every two weeks, we will sit down with a guest to analyse the week’s events through the lens of the principles of a free society.
This week, we looked at the news with political consultant Laura Emily Dunn to discuss the horrific Manchester synagogue attack, Tory party conference, the recent Westminster espionage case, and the absurd regulation of our utility industries.

Welcome to the Counter-Insurgency, the Substack exclusive companion podcast to The Insurgency with Steve Baker.
Last Week on Voices for a Free Future
Everyone needs a little adventure
We can all benefit from going outside our comfort zone and learning something new. That was certainly true for me in Morocco last week: an old friend and I took our motorcycles across Spain to ride on unpaved roads in the Atlas Mountains. It has been a long time since I travelled outside the comfort of Europe and North America without the support which inevitably follows an MP or minister on duty abroad.
From Liberty to Permission: How We Lost Freedom.
Freedom is slipping through our fingers, not with a bang, but with quiet, bureaucratic shifts in language and law. What once was a natural right is now too often treated as a conditional permission.
Britain's Free Speech Frankenstein
In Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, the titular scientist embarks on an ambitious journey of attempted omnipotence with tragic consequences: the abominable monster he creates and its implications turn out to be catastrophic not just for him personally but for those around him. In much the same way have we found ourselves in our present struggles in relation to freedom of speech: the laws which govern what can legally be said have come to resemble a grotesque hybrid of overlapping legal regimes and ever-expanding statutes which for centuries have created a confusing patchwork of speech offences.
