Jonny Best Did Not Break Uni Regulations

For those who remember the complaint against Jonny Best for transphobic attitudes and the resulting hearing at the university, there's an update.

twitter.com/jonnnybest/status/1208113300149620736 (There's a thread.)

The disciplinary appeal panel at University of Huddersfield has unanimously decided that I broke no university regulations when I shared the details of the transphobia complaint against me: my 'official warning' has been withdrawn and the complaint expunged from my record.

The Dean of the School of Music, Humanities and Media had previously decided I had broken FOUR regs, and he issued a sanction without any due process, thereby disregarding the rules, as well as the principles of natural justice.

Briliant. And about time, too. Well done, Jonny. You're such a principled and dignified man, it must have been so difficult to have this hanging over you.
