Lucy with dark brown hair wearing a yellow sleeveless top and a small pendant necklace, seated in a wooden chair and speaking into a black microphone on a boom arm against a plain beige wall with a serious expression.

Lucy Connolly is not, by her own admission, a politician, a pundit, or a revolutionary.

She is, as she puts it, a “nobody.” A mother of two from Northampton, England, married to an engineer and local politician; and, until last year, was more concerned with school runs and snack schedules than the state of Britain’s freedom of expression.
