More at the Telegraph:
An Oxford University professor has been forced to cancel lectures following abuse from pro-trans activists.
Dr Michael Foran, 32, an associate professor of law at the university, was interrupted by protesters at two separate talks discussing gender law in recent weeks.
Footage obtained by The Telegraph showed activists standing in front of his lectern and telling the audience he was a “bigot” and “transphobic”.
The academic, who is an expert on gender law, confirmed on Sunday that he had cancelled his remaining two lectures because of the “escalating disruptive protests”….
At his first lecture on May 29, as he stood at the lectern preparing to begin, two activists walked to the front of the lecture hall and started addressing the audience. They are both believed to be students at the university….
In a video taken by an audience member, one of them, reading from his phone, claimed that Dr Foran “masks his transphobia behind a thin veneer of academia”.
He added: “If you are here in a critical capacity to challenge his ideas… that is not the same as refusing to platform him. He will not be convinced by your arguments. Please join me in walking out and refusing to platform this bigot.”
Audience members could be heard urging the protesters to leave, while Dr Foran said: “I’d really appreciate if you don’t disrupt this event.”
At the next lecture on June 5, the same two protesters again addressed the audience at the start of the lecture.
In the footage, their voices can hardly be heard as audience members shouted at them to leave and drowned them out with chanting.
After they left, two more activists hidden in the audience stood up and continued to protest before they were escorted out.
It’s always the same: personal insults, and “no debate”. So what is the university proposing to do now about this pathetic and disgraceful performance?
