Kirk Smeade’s treatment shows that some things about student unions haven’t changed since my student days in the Seventies.They’re still full of pompous PC feminists with no sense of humour. For a “democracy and comunications officer” to suppress free speech exposes them as a hypocrite. No action should even be taken against students for what they say, be it misogynistic, homophobic, transgenderphobic or whatever. UCL should both refuse to take any action against Kirk and tell the students’ union to stop persecuting him. He and his friends should just go into union areas and defy the Reds to throw him out.
