Trying to track down the protests against creepy anti trans academic Michael Foran & all I could find was these two people in a clip on The Telegraph. What was very noticeable is that the audience was very sparse.
I think that might be the real reason he’s cancelled his talks.

TERF goes & harasses & films a random store employee about change rooms and he tells her they have lockable individual ones & refers her to company policy so now they are after him like rabid dogs. doxxing him, being homophobic, and trying to get him fired. It’s a sick community

Oh look. This concerned parent isn’t a parent, has been arrested for a hate crime and for drug and weapon offences after items were found at his home.
Always those crying about protecting children that are the ones they need protecting from.

The Green Party has admitted that its leader Zack Polanski has, until recently, been living on a houseboat in London and may have failed to pay council tax.
Dan Neidle, founder of Tax Policy Associates, says he'd like to see an 'explanation' of what happened.
A party spokesperson said Mr Polanski had 'taken steps to pay any council tax he may be found to owe' and 'apologised sincerely for the unintentional mistake'.

Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil was found dead after hours of searching under rubble. She was killed in an Israeli strike, after the Israeli army fired at ambulances trying to reach her, delaying her rescue.
She is the fourth journalist killed by Israel while in the field since 2 March.
She was a professional, kind and dedicated journalist, and always a pleasure to run into in the field.

Multiple issues here:
1) HIV treatment is more cost effective than treating the consequences of HIV & opportunistic infections.
2) Uncontrolled HIV drives transmission.
Even viewing from a purely economic view point (rather than moral one) - this policy makes zero sense.
