Michael Foran has had to cancel the remaining lectures on Sex, GI and the law.....

[impossibletoday]

due to bullying and harassment of those students wanting to attend.

Good.

I did slightly hope that William Hague might not be a complete wet lettuce on this. He seemed really quite cross.

Forgive me if I'm being blind but although he says it's been rescheduled, and they say it will be rescheduled, there doesn't actually seem to be a published date yet?

The announcement says IIRC "early in the Michaelmas term" (how suitable!). That's the first term of the academic year so it's likely to be October or November.

I hope to be able to attend if it's open to all. However what the announcement does not cover is the published intention to harass and dox attendees of these lectures. Surely this comes under whatever bullying or harassment policies the University has? What's being done about this aspect? This was partly why MF cancelled IIRC. The threats.

Then again they don't see anything wrong with Biggus Tittus fake porn breasts making the workplace uncomfortable for young women, so they're obviously not very good as a workplace in general. Can't imagine what it must be like being a young woman in that environment.

Oh and the Department of Biology conducted a witch hunt against Dr North with whole department struggle session emails denouncing him and threatening his employment (until the Free Speech Union stepped in and pointed out all the laws this broke) for putting up quotes from Orwell and other famous authors....

Orwell himself would probably have said he couldn't have made it up.
