A group of academics at the world-leading institution say its policies on harassment and social media are in breach of its legal duty to protect freedom of speech as they prohibit 'speech that is lawful'.
They claim the policies 'frustrate academic freedom - the life blood of this university - and harm academic careers'.
...but of course, you're only doing so now because one of your own is affected. You kept remarkably quiet when other careers were threatened, didn't you?
In a statement, the university said: 'The university is both allowed and obliged to take action in response to concerns about the treatment of a member of the university community by a fellow member of the same community and the university is confident that its policy and procedure on harassment and its social media guidance reflect and comply with its legal obligations.'
Let's see how long that confidence is upheld when you start having to pay out, shall we?
