UK News: Conservative university students are finding it increasingly difficult to express their views, a study has shown.
Half of students believe that those with conservative views feel uncomfortable in putting forward their viewpoint, up from 37% in 2019, according to new research by King's College London.
The belief has grown particularly among those who say they would vote for the Conservative Party, rising from 59 percent to 68 percent over the last three years.
