Trans activists disrupt Kathleen Stock speech at Oxford Union

Gender-critical feminist’s speech temporarily stopped after protester glues themself to floor

The gender-critical feminist Dr Kathleen Stock was forced to temporarily halt her contested appearance at the Oxford Union after a trans activist glued herself to the debating chamber close to the speaker’s chair.

Stock, who argues that transgender people cannot expect all the rights afforded by biological sex, had been speaking over the sound of up to 200 people protesting outside about her invitation when a group of activists stormed the debating chamber on Tuesday.
