This government just doesn't care about that.  They are only interested in two things: themselves, and the importation of the Third World as future Labour voters.

Doubtless both are true (I doubt racism came into it although it is possible). The version you read depends where you read it. I imagine there is no doubt that he made up plenty of stuff and somebody spotted some of it which if the stories are true, which I imagine they must be, was hardly difficult. Then the digging started.

   You are welcome.

There appears to be two sides to this sad story .

One he was hounded by the racist press .

Two he was fraud and a fantasist who made up all the stuff about his life and plagiarised his articles etc

.
I had also never heard of the man until a week or so ago .

Nor had many

He was a well paid Cambridge professor why would he need a gofundme fund ?
It has however reached 130k apparently.

Lots of options on that fourth letter

There was a big town centre walk in here back in the day. Pretty sure it was gas although it may have been electric  as well or even just electric. I remember going to town with cash in my pocket for the bill and saw some really nice speakers in a sale on the way. I came home with some really nice speakers.

There's a gofundme that has topped £40k for his family if anybody fancies donating.

Its because the woke movement choose identity over merit .
The fact he was a black  his credentials were ( seemingly ) not important .
I don't understand it myself surely you have to have great credentials to be come a professor at Cambridge university ?
