They still go on, these trans disruptions. Incredible.
A leading academic who led a recent government review into sex and gender data collection has threatened legal action against the University of Bristol, claiming it failed to protect her freedom of speech.
Prof Alice Sullivan has also written to the university regulator, the Office for Students, after a talk she gave at the university was disrupted by a trans rights protest.
Prof Sullivan told the BBC it was like a “zombie apocalypse” as some protesters pressed up against the window with placards and loudhailers.
The fire alarm was set off more than once, disrupting the talk, until security staff advised they move to a higher floor.
As she left after the event, Prof Sullivan said she heard “howls of ‘shame on you, shame on you’”.…
The letter that has now been sent by Prof Sullivan’s lawyers says the University of Bristol had 15 months to find a secure location on campus for the talk.
It adds that documents disclosed by the university reveal there had been complaints made by its LGBTQ+ staff network against her speaking.
Prof Sullivan says she has raised many of her concerns with the Office for Students, which as regulator of universities in England has the power to fine institutions if they fail to uphold freedom of speech.
Earlier this year, the OfS handed out a record fine of £585,000 to the University of Sussex, warning that its transgender and non-binary inclusion policy had a “chilling effect” on freedom of speech.
That might shake them up a bit – a hefty fine.
How long before these addle-brained students realise they’ve been conned? – that people can’t change sex, and trans isn’t the next great liberation movement? Sorry you were late for the party with civil rights, feminism, gay rights and all, but that’s no excuse for shouting and screaming for a cult based on regressive sexist stereotypes and homophobia.
