LGBT+ activists protest against Kathleen Stock’s talk at Oxford Union

Around 200 LGBT+ activists protested against the gender-critical academic Kathleen Stock’s talk at Oxford Union on Tuesday, 30 May.

Protesters marched on Bonn Square holding banners which read “resisting by existing” and chanting “trans rights – human rights”.

Dr Stock said in her address to the 200-year-old debating society that it was “not fair on females” to share spaces such as changing rooms and bathrooms with trans women because of the potential threat of violence.
