We are behind you

The UCL Atheist president has resigned. To those who have resigned and the ones who will take their places: Don’t worry. Don’t be afraid. We are behind you and we aim to win…

As an aside, the UCL Union said in a statement: ‘The atheist society has agreed they will take more consideration when drawing up publicity for future events.’ I suggest that the UCL Union take more consideration when censoring free expression and appeasing Islamists. They are not going to get away with it anymore.

UPDATE AND CORRECTION

The president of Queen Mary atheist group has not resigned. She just sent me the following email:

I have not resigned. I want to see the society through this turbulent time at least untill the police investigation has been resolved.

I will then review the situation and decide how to proceed with the society.

I am happy to answer any other questions that you may have, and look forward to rescheduling the talk.

    The Facebook group of the UCLASH has been frozen, by the society, and the society’s Treasurer has also lost all rights to post in that group. No one, including him by the looks of it, really knows why. The society was not informed of the resignation of Robbie Yellon until the BBC article.

    The petition has also been deleted. So it looks like the Union did get away with it, and somebody has caved in. The situation certainly wasn’t helped by Michael Paynter ranting and attacking some members of the society for blogging about it and making the issue too ‘contentious’.
