‘The university accused of forcing a Nobel Prize winning scientist to resign over sexist comments is at the centre of a new row over freedom of expression.
University College London (UCL) already stands accused of being heavy-handed and pandering to a ‘baying witch-hunt’ on social media in its handling of the resignation of Sir Tim Hunt as a professor in its life sciences department, following remarks he made about women scientists.

Perhaps we’re getting to the point where pandering to the various “victim” groups will collapse under it’s own pile of conflicting absurdities.
