Protest against gender-critical academic at Oxford Union

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak defended the right of students to hear and debate Stock's views, and the protest was organized by the LGBTQ+ Society at Oxford University.

The talk was disrupted by two trans rights protesters, and there were reports of glue used to disrupt the event.

The debate surrounding Stock's views on gender identity and the use of the Oxford Union platform to express anti-trans views is ongoing, with some arguing that her views could be considered hate speech.

Stock believes that controversial views should be tested in public and that it is important for younger generations to be exposed to a range of ideas.

The Oxford University LGBTQ+ Society has received numerous hateful and threatening comments online, including death threats, over their opposition to a visit by Kathleen Stock.

The society's president, Amiad Haran Diman, and vice-president, Zoë-Rose Guy, have described the past few weeks as "crazy" and "exhausting," respectively, as they have had to deal with the abuse.

The society has also faced criticism for opposing Prof.

Stock's visit, with some people arguing that they should support free speech.

However, the society has defended its position, stating that speaking at the Oxford Union is a privilege and not a right.

The Oxford Union has backed the decision to host Prof.

Stock, with its president, Matthew Dick, stating that people who "just want to incite hate" will not be invited to speak while he is in post.

The society has planned a protest on Tuesday focused on "celebrating trans joy" and has emphasized that the protest will not be a "hate campaign" against Prof.

Stock.
