Not even remotely surprised by the Daily Mail's pathetic, cowardly, weaselly attack on @DurhamSUpres Seun Twins today.
There's racist, sexist filth piling into her emails and messages, and that's exactly what the DM wanted to enable.
Solidarity with Seun and her SU colleagues.

Are your student media groups safe, supported and on the right side of the law?
If that’s on your to-do list, then the brand-new Media Law for SUs course is for you - now available via SU Skills.
Interested?

Can anyone think another slice of civil society or the economy that arranges almost 60,000 speaking events per year?
Higher education isn’t where free speech is threatened, it’s where all the free speech is happening in the first place.

Real loss is the 1000s of hours of time that student officers, uni staff, pols and journos will pour into this non-issue.
Imagine how HE could be transformed if all that attention and political capital was spent on solving the sector's *actual* problems?

So we're getting a free speech in unis bill. Almost every uni and their SU has a good story to tell here - so while it's a distraction and I'd love see the time spent on duty of care issues, there's very little to fear.
