    Cambridge Exorcism? Bravo, Prof! 


    New project led by Prof Arif Ahmed has been initiated to counter an increasingly prevalent ‘cancel culture’ on campus..

    Cambridge University students are to get free speech training, as part of a new project aimed at countering “cancel culture” on campus.

    Professor Arif Ahmed is the guy whose invitation to a critic of the transfreak ideology…

    Free Cakes For Freaks? A New Cambridge Low! ..

    …affronted the pro-maladjust fanatics on campus to an extraordinary degree…

    .

    .

    …and even came under attack by his college’s left-bigot ‘master!’

    Read it all, esp. the useful link to examples of evil woke intolerance.. high-profile incidents where university chiefs have censured or no-platformed speakers

    Oh, and this link too…

    …about the climate of fear spread by cultural marxist bullying, how Prof Ahmed  had to smuggle students into the talk as they were scared their peers would see them attending,

    More Cambridge Klutzes

    Both the SU and the LGBT officers called on the College and faculties to “reconsider their decision to platform Joyce.” https://www.varsity.co.uk/news/24395

    Who’s Joyce?

    It doesn’t matter, but you can use the link to learn more,

    The status of Cambridge Student Union luminaries and their queer comrades needs to be ‘reconsidered.’

    Students who close their minds to views different from their own…

    .

    .

    …are not fit to be called ‘students’ at all.

    Kick them OUT and make room for deserving young people capable of considering other people’s points of view.

    Tags: , Cambridge University, scholarships for blacks only,   

    Opprobrium Cambiensis! 


    After taking a poke at some appeasement berks in Oxford last week…

    Oxoniental Obeisance…Stinks!

    …now we’re back at Cambridge, which is having a rather nasty woke-wallow of its own, namely…

    ...more scholarships to black students after uncovering slavery links..

    Oh, yeah, we wrote about that shoddy witch-hunt against a long-dead benefactor…Lucky Jesus! No – I’m Not Blaspheming! 

    Hallelujah! Church Court ‘NO’ To BLM Appeasers! 

    …a year ago, I think.

    The scheme will include places for British students and those from abroad to help compensate for historical abuse, the university said

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/09/22/cambridge-university-will-offer-scholarships-black-students/

    So despite all the woko-rot about ‘inclusion,’ the scholarships will be allocated only to blacks?

    BTW…

    How are blacks to be defined – on the old apartheid rules,by which Coloureds were differentiated from Blacks?

    Then, which blacks qualify – only those with definitive proof of having been captured, bought or sold by Cambridge-connected traders?

    There might be a trace of logic there.

    Can’t have scholarships handed to descendants of the many blacks who sold other blacks to slave-traders, can we?

    Well, in Cambridge these days.…

    Prof. Grimnasty Gopal, Petty Pinko Plonker

    Dr Priyamvada Gopal sparked a backlash after tweeting:
    “White Lives Don’t Matter

    …anything’s possible!

    But simply to racialise a scholarship is irrational and inexcusable.

     

     
    • Edward Lamont 23:06 on September 26, 2022 Permalink | Reply

      All very good points, those you raise, but in the end, the strongest objection to these racially discriminatory scholarships is that they are racially discriminatory.
      If my ancestors were treated badly, that’s no reason to indulge me.
      Scholarships should be allocated on the basis of who has brains and uses them best.

    Woke Weasels Snarl At Mozart! 


    ‘Decolonise your ears as Mozart’s works may be an instrument of Empire, students told.. ‘https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/05/07/decolonise-ears-mozarts-works-may-instrument-empire-students/

    It’s not the first time Mozart’s music has been abused for political effect, since his most impressive “Ode to Joy” was hi-jacked…

    .

    …by the Fourth Reich, as its anthem!

    ..
    Even so, the latest sicko saga is truly laughable, or would be, if we were making up satirical stories..

    ..

    .

    ….about pinko creeps foisting wokery on students who go to Cambridge University for an education.

    But, sadly, it seems to be true that undergraduates studying one of Cambridge’s music courses are being “taught to view classical works as an ‘imperial phenomenon…’ “

    Do these Cambridge ‘educators’ have their snooty snouts slurping in the public purse?

    .

    If so, time to boot some bozos off the yummy tax-trough

    Power To The Fusties! Cambridge Common Sense! 


    ‘It is symbolic of an entrenched, majority cis male, majority white, majority fusty fellowship who neither know nor want to know about the injustices faced by minorities.’

    That’s a quite spectacular whinge emanating from a queer PhD student at Gonville and Caius, who is…

    Boo Hoo Hoo!

    ‘…bitterly disappointed…’

    But why?

    What heinous crime against humanity has the venerable Cambridge college committed?

    Was it a ban on wearing one’s trousers backwards?

    Or a refusal to permit pink velvet jump-suits at graduation ceremonies?

    Nope!

    It seems that, having pathetically chosen to fly something called the Progress Pride Flag…to mark the first day of LGBT History Month,’

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10477719/Pride-row-Keys-College-Cambridge-announces-wont-fly-LGBTQ-flag.html

    …the college authorities came to their senses and decided that flaunting appeasement of the maladjusted wasn’t such a good idea after all.

    Instead, they will skip all such nonsense gestures and keep the college’s own banner aloft all year long.

    Good on ya, Fusties!

    Here’s part of their statement

    Choosing to fly only the College flag avoids concerns regarding political neutrality and the difficulty of choosing between the plurality of good causes for which a flag could be flown.’

    But that message of goodwill has been ill-received, because although the gaystapo agenda, the absurdity of ‘gay marriage’ and the foul folly of ‘gay’ adoption…

    .

    .

    …has never been put to the people of the UK…

    .

    .

    …and Cast-Iron Cameron’s dodgy ‘consultation’ was a bad joke, the uptights are claiming that their agenda is not political…

    .

    .

     

    …so none dare challenge their increasingly outrageous demands… 

    .

    .

    ..even as they wage their war on free speech and scientific truth!

    Cambridge Jackboot Berk- A Slow Learner? 


    We got some new tv channels recently, replacements for The Walking Dead, etc.

    .

    Useful pic – can be used both for zombies seeking fresh flesh, and for Channel crimmigrants delightedly approaching the fancy free hotel accommodation provided by Priti Patel!

    …not a good trade, alas.

    I miss the zoms!

    But one of the channels has old UK comedies, including Fawlty Towers, which was, and is still hilarious.

    And the star of course was John Cleese, whom I have applauded a few times, a week ago, and a year ago, for his sense.

    He has laudable ability to use our common language (English!) as an educated Englishman should.

    We Opine That Dom Joly Is Ill-Educated…Or An Inverted Snob?

    ……..

    Now again I praise the man, who seems to have shamed some shrinking violets at Cambridge, University into removing their jackboots.

    The pathetic little plonkers had declared a black-list, after a guest speaker mocked Hitler’s rhetorical style ( making it very clear it was mockery)

    .

    .

    So Mr. Cleese, whose comedy routine often included mockery of Adolf, promptly showed his contempt for the shallow society’s  jackanapes leadership by cancelling a scheduled appearance .

    But did the society president, whose term ends this month, only purport to back off?

    Here’s what the pip-squeak said.

    Our speakers may say what they wish in our chamber, and absolutely never need to fear that anything they say will put them on a list of any sort…”

    But…

    .//

    ..he almost simultaneously announced he’d still recommend to his successor that the guy whose impersonation of A. H. got woke-weasel knickers in a twist “ought not be re-invited back.”

    Woke-Rats Of Wolfson? Witch-Hunt Cambridge? 


    Remember those scenes from Red China when the debauched tyrant Mao…

    .

    …unleashed communist hoodlums, aka ‘students,’ to hunt down, harass and hurt anyone on campus who dissented, or was even accused of dissent?

    Well, it’s back to the future, at one of the most distinguished universities in the English-speaking world!

    It’s especially depressing to anyone who spent time in Cambridge, a lovely city where I had a lot of fun.

    .

    Not Wolfson College, but a typically lovely Cambridge scene

    Home Office Subversion – Who Invited The Far-Left Prof? 


    A rather coarse middle-aged leftist named Priyamvada Gopal…

    Priyamvada Gopal is University Reader in Anglophone and Related Literatures in the Faculty of English and Fellow, Churchill College, University of Cambridge

    …is getting her pinko knickers in a twist because she was invited then disinvited to address a Home Office get-together.

    The disinvitation should be unsurprising…

    .

    .

    …after her racially-charged slur on the Home Secretary, which I quote in full.

    Priti Patel is also a reminder that many Asians in British Africa had ferociously anti-black attitudes and were used by colonial administrations to keep black populations in their place. An attitude she brings to government.
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/oct/14/academic-calls-on-universities-minister-to-defend-her-freedom-of-speech

    Gopal is described, without evidence, by the Guardian hack, as a ‘respected author.’

    I don’t respect her!

    Do you? Have you even heard of her!

    Respected authors‘ publish books that thousands of people buy!

    Well Said Freddy! Forsyth V ‘Intellectual’ Jackals 

    Like Mr. Forsyth, for example!

    It’s hard to respect somebody who has somehow managed to get a university professorship and then demeans its reputation by her coarse language.

    I liked some of my profs, others not so much, but they could all express themselves without using words like ‘arse!’

    Gopal’s more like a fish-wife than an academic!

    But the BIG issue should not be the DISinvitation, but rather…

    .

    WHO invited this nasty hag in the first place?

    She’s free to rant and rave about race on Cambridge’s lovely college greens…

    ...

    …but to befoul the Home Office, to summon a far-left fanatic to harangue supposedly non-political civil servants?

    WHOSE IDEA WAS THAT?

    And has he ( or she) been booted out, told to go and find a job with BLM?

    We will not get an answer, methinks, even if some MP with cojones asks at Prime Minister’s Question Time at Westminster.

    .

    ..

    Bojo, like Priti, lacks the guts to come clean, never mind cleanse the Home Office sty.

    Far from it.

    Jellyfish Johnson and Priti Useless are up to their necks in BLM collabo cr-p!

    Get this!

    A government spokesman said last night:

    ‘The civil service is a diverse employer and it is vitally important we celebrate Black History Month to ensure our civil service is representative of the communities we serve…. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10094351/Academic-attacked-Priti-Patel-gets-cancelled-Home-Office.html

    .

    .. …

    That’s frankly disgusting!

    I once spent a while as a civil servant, ages ago.

    There was no Ulster-Scots History Month, nor Scots, nor Welsh, and certainly no British History Month…

    ….which ALL civil servants of all ethnicities could – or should- be happy to celebrate!

    In fact, of course…

    ….civil servants should be getting on with doing the jobs they’re paid to do.

    I hear there’s an ‘asylum’ back-log!

    Is that not more ‘vitally important‘ than a race-based celebration?

      There is something rotten in the Home Office.
      Why has Priti Patel not got rid of the left activists who organised this Black History nonsense?
      For the same reason she has not got rid of all those illegals her patrol boats bring in from France.
      She is Priti Useless, as you say!
