Unsurprised to see this statement by @JoPhoenix1 and @GoonerProf. But it's a sad and worrying time when a university chooses to break the law on academic freedom to appease a small but determined group of extremists. jophoenix.substack.com/p/joint-statem…
Shame on @essexuniversity and all spineless university managers. They have the resources and power to stand up to bullies. Instead they enable proponents of an extreme ideology to call the shots in teaching, research and public engagement. For shame.

Listen to this interview with @JoPhoenix1 after the first apology. She was gracious and generous, and optimistic that @essexuniversity would lead the HE sector out of the current impasse. We can't imagine how she must have felt after they 'recanted'. savageminds.substack.com/p/jo-phoenix
How about a comment from @ucu which of all unions should be in the forefront of defending academic freedom. We won't hold our breath. Solidarity with @JoPhoenix1 and @GoonerProf and we wish you had a decent union to take this case on for you. jophoenix.substack.com/p/joint-statem…
