"Death By Tofu!" - Oxford Uni Press Release

One could be forgiven for thinking that the spoof press release below was written by an animal rights campaigner. However, people might be surprised to learn that the press release was written not by someone who opposes vivisection but by one of the solicitors acting on behalf of Oxford University; the same solicitor who is currently trying to imprison SPEAK's founders Robert Cogswell and Mel Broughton. SPEAK have been given a copy of the press release that tells us so much about the university and those working on behalf of the university. Read more >>

A Dirty Business - Oxford University & the Dogs of War!

It’s difficult to imagine Oxford University professors having cosy chats with seasoned mercenaries. It’s even more difficult to believe that there is a strong link between leading Oxford University academics and men who are paid to go to war and whose only loyalty is to their bank accounts.

Bravehearts: Remembering George

In a scene that could have come from George Orwell’s classic book 1984, hundreds of police officers flooded the streets of Oxford on 22nd July. Side Streets were lined with police vans, packed with police officers. Dozens of officers on bikes patrolled the streets, whilst dozens more stood on every street corner. Wherever you looked, yellow tunic officers were in abundance. A dozen police horses were forced to march through the searing heat of Oxford City centre as Thames Valley Police prowled the streets of this once picturesque city. Read more >>
