The wife of a leading academic at the centre of a free speech row has revealed vile students called her a ‘b***h’ after they stormed out of a speech by Rod Liddle.
Dorothy Luckhurst shared her story about how fearful the “baying” mob made her feel and she praised her husband Tim for helping to organize the Durham University speech.
It comes as undergraduates try to gag guest speakers performing on campus by calling for ‘content warnings’ on their lectures before they arrive.
Durham must reduce future speech bans by increasing transparency about the process by which individuals are invited.
Students had walked out during the talk by Mr Liddle and Professor Luckhurst on Friday. He later apologized for his anger.
The talk by Mr Liddle covered trans and gender issues as well as institutional racism. These topics are frequently used on campus campuses by “woke” activists.
He yesterday called for university bosses to apology for ‘vilifying’ his speech and said they should reimburse his £150 travel expenses.
Professor Luckhurst remains under investigation. He is currently barred from all duties as a result of the scandal. He is believed to be gagged during the live case.

Footage was captured of Dorothy, the wife of Dorothy, talking to students who woke up after the Friday speech

While educating them about free speech at universities, Professor Luckhurst attempted to soothe the students as they stared at him.

Video footage of Professor Luckhurst and Mrs Luckhurst talking with students after the talk was over emerged. This was to help calm down their nerves.
These men appeared to have helped them see that universities were supposed to provide a bastion of freedom speech.
As Professor Luckhurst began to speak, the youths listened intently. His wife then interrupted.
She asked her: “What are your fears of, silly… What are you afraid of?” One student squeaked back, “What’s your meaning?”
The rest of their exchange was inaudible but Mrs Luckhurst went on to repeat the word ‘a***’.
Yesterday, Mrs Luckhurst clarified that the video was missing the context where the students insulted the couple.
She said one of the ‘baying’ mob called her a ‘b***h’ and left her intimidated and frightened as they swarmed around them.
According to her, she said that although it wasn’t right for me to say what I did, it had been an exhausting day. It was also very stressful.
Yesterday Durham students called on future speakers to be subject of ‘content warnings.’ They also demanded a voice in who is allowed to speak at the university.
They also want an investigation ‘based on his [Luckhurst’s]Neglecting to provide care for students… and his wife’s bullying.
Societies including ‘mature students’; ‘working class students’; ‘LGBT+’; ‘students with disabilities’; ‘international students’; ‘people of colour’; and ‘womxn’ – a word activists use for females which includes trans women signed the statement.
The list included the following: “Under Durham University’s Disciplinary Regulations…we believe these actions constitute gross misconduct.”
They demanded that Professor Luckhurst be subject to a formal investigation into his ‘neglect in duty of care for students’ as well as his verbal condemnation.
In the statement, it was stated that Rod Liddle had been promoted by Tim Luckhurst to promote a culture which is hateful towards LGBTQ+ and disabled people. [people of colour]And working-class students becoming normalized…
“These acts have made students feel unsafe attending formals at college.”

South College was the scene of a small protest by Left-wing students calling for a safer, more inclusive campus

Yesterday afternoon, around 200 Durham University students protested against the row that broke out following Rod Liddle’s speech at an end-of-year event.

Yesterday, the students with placards demanding he be out met at South College where Liddle joked about sex workers.

On a green were activists who held placards saying “mansplain, manipulate and manwife” as well as “we are queer, here”.

In their latest effort to fire the professor, South College was invaded by a few student activists yesterday.
South College was thronged by a crowd of “woke” students to demand that Professor Luckhurst, an academic and ex-newspaper editor, be fired.
The placard-waving rabble held signs saying ‘human rights are not up for the debate’ and ‘#BinTim’ as guest speakers took turns to address the group.
Mob members murmured, “hey hey ho ho Tim Luckhurst has to go”, and other chants.
However, the sacking of Mr Liddle was not able to be distinguished from banning him from speaking. They bizarrely stated that they support free speech.
Some people at the rally admitted that they hadn’t been to the talk. However, they felt their anger needed to be heard.
Connie Harrison (age 18) stated that she believes it is important for us to help our peers.
“I did not attend the dinner, but some of my friends went and got out early to protest the speeches.
‘A few of them attempted to speak with Tim at the last, but he refused to listen to them. Their only option was to walk out, which I don’t think they had.
She stated that they were not permitted to discuss the issue, as it was too late for such a conversation.
“Rod Liddle has the right to free speech, but only in this environment and not in such a context. Students should also be allowed to have a discussion and express their views.

Children carried banners and flags bearing messages, such as “sod Rod”, ‘proudly be pathetic”, and “no hate”

Last night, seven organisations accused Professor Luckhurst with ‘gross misconduct’. The mob called the “woke” and stepped up their campaign to get rid of him.

Durham University students protest outside South College. Yesterday’s speaker addressed them.

The claim was that he encouraged a culture of hate and harm by inviting Mr Liddle for his speech
Ben Bradley also 18 said, “It was thrust on the students without any prior notice.”
“I do not believe it was the right time or place for that conversation, especially with something so controversial like that.
“I believe strongly in free speech. However, I completely disagree with what transpired in that particular room.”
A peer claimed that she went to the dinner with half of the group. The other half remained seated.
Unnamed female student said that he made remarks about single mothers, and suggested their children be removed from them.
“He also made remarks about transgender people. He said that if you were born with a penis, then scientifically you’re a man. This is scientifically incorrect.
“He stated that colonisation was not the cause of Africa’s problems, and made remarks about prostitution.
Another chant was heard as she spoke, declaring, “When my rights are being attacked, what should we do?” You must fight back.

They claimed that the Friday incident at a formal dinner made them feel unsafe and distressed.

They claimed that it was in violation of the Equality Act.

Yasmine, a French and Spanish student Yasmine Dan (18), said: “He opened the speech using a joke that was “I’m disappointed to not see any sex workers there tonight”.
“That set the tone and the speeches just kept getting worse. A lot of the people who had been there were gone by the end but some others were scared to move on.
“About 8 people left the table at the beginning, but the principal gave them an unexpected response. He called them stupid.
“Free speech doesn’t equal hate speech” – and that is exactly what happened. Unidentified man called on Professor Luckhurst for his resignation.
“I believe his place here now is wholly inappropriate since he has so let down students.
“The remarks Liddle made concerning single mothers raising children who turn to crime are unfounded.
“He can absolutely have free speech. But free speech does not include hate speech.
“And free speech doesn’t grant you the right for free speech wherever. That conversation was inappropriate and should not have been had without prior notice.
It’s believed that guest speakers attended pre-dinner seminars, which allowed them to discuss and listen with students.
However, a student stated that Mr Liddle couldn’t attend the seminar slot and could therefore only address the dinner.
Sean Hannigan, president of the Junior Common Room, cried to the crowd: “We were jump with a speaker whom we didn’t expect to be speaking.”
“There wasn’t an opportunity to reply. This was a deliberate inflamatory tactic.
“I heard that other rent-strikers were organizing a strike. This is the right momentum to help us get started.
The only way the university is going to listen is if they are financially impacted. We, homosexuals and black people as well as every other person living here are the owners of this country.
Echoing a slogan of ex-Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, he added: ‘We need to stand up for this country and its rights and build a new country for the many not the few.’
This comes just a few days after Mr Liddle lambasted Durham University’s ‘despicable treatment’ of Professor Luckhurst.
According to the columnist, the institution must issue an apology and reinstate him to his duties immediately.
He also called for bosses to say sorry to him for ‘vilifying’ his speech and said they should reimburse his £150 travel expenses.
Yesterday, Mr Liddle rushed to the aid of his friend, blasting Durham, the new head at South College, for making a scapegoat of Durham.
While he stated that he had expected students to behave like this, he was shocked by the university’s reaction.
GB News was informed by him that he believed Durham University would do the right thing. Their behavior was far more abominable than that of the students.
“I expected this from students. I even expected it from some of them. You don’t see the double thinking Durham University indulges in.
They first say that they are in agreement with freedom speech. Next, they state except that if something is not what we agree with and the Labour Party at campus disagrees with then they don’t agree.
‘Then and perhaps most important of all, Tim Luckhurst made the scapegoat. Tim asked me to join him after I had cleared it with them having informed them in advance.
“They’ve now decided that they have to placate these infants by doing something. So a highly respected, well-respected and extremely competent journalist is left out in the cold.
“And so, what they should now do immediately is number one: decide whether they believe or not in free speech.
“Number 2: Write a sincere apology to Professor Luckhurst and immediately reinstate him to his duties.
“And I accept the invitation he made to me in good faith.
The third thing they need to do is to write me a note of regret and to explain that their remarks about me were unfair.
“They will also send me 150 dollars for travel expenses since I was there unpaid with a desire to do right by the public and give back to society, all that stuff.”
He stated, “So they could apologise for me and pay my travel costs. Then I’ll be satisfied.”

Yesterday’s Liddle came to Durham’s rescue, blaming Durham for making Durham the’scapegoat’ academic head of South College.
One friend said that Tim was one of the kindest, most intelligent and kindly people she’s ever met. He is being really victimized here.
According to the Free Speech Union, Professor Luckhurst was vilified and abused for inviting Rod Liddle as an after-dinner speaker.
Students who can’t cope with listening to opinions that they disagree with shouldn’t go to university.
Although Durham claims that it is committed to academic free speech and has placed Prof. Luckhurst under investigation after he described the student’s decision not to attend the speech as “pathetic”,
Professor Luckhurst expressed a perfectly legal view. Penalizing him for this could be considered a violation of law, which requires that universities uphold freedom speech on campuses.
“Professor Luckhurst belongs to the Free Speech Union. We support him wholeheartedly.”
The students of Durham (SU), called for the dismissal of Professor Stump, deeming his position ‘untenable.
Seun Twins Jack Ballingham, Jonah Graham Jonah Graham Declan Merrington Charlie Procter all claimed they were hosting Jonah Graham.
Ms Twins previously wrote of her hate for the Tories and called for their ‘dealt.


Two of the five Durham Student’s Union officers are shown here. They demanded that a prominent academic quit after Rod Liddle invited him to speak at a dinner party.


The Free Speech Union condemned the five officers, including two of them (pictured), who made a long and convoluted statement in an attempt to remove South College principal Tim Luckhurst.

Seun Twins Jack Ballingham, Jonah Graham and Declan Merrington (pictured) claim that Charlie Procter hosted one of Britain’s most well-known writers.
The students wrote that the Principal of South College had insulted, humiliated them.
The former editor of the national newspaper was Tim Luckhurst. His hijacking of Christmas parties allowed him to allow his close friend to spread vile propaganda that would create division.
“His disgraceful and shameless attempt to justify this pantomime while pretending that it was for students’ education is shameful.
“He failed to fulfill his duties of care as principal for South College students and leader within our University community.
Liddle stated that the Left ignored science on trans issues during his appearance and claimed Colonialism was not responsible for Africa’s current problems.
He stated that underperformance among students of Caribbean descent wasn’t due to institutional racism.
These are the mainstream views of many government and academic experts, he said to Daily Mail later.
He said, “I am not racist or transphobic.” Transgender people should be able to live happily, with dignity, and equality in this world. I detest racism.
His main message was that we should be open to hearing other opinions, and not doubt our own.
Later, Professor Luckhurst emailed his students to apologize for the use of “pathetic” but also to defend Liddle’s right to invite him and to say he supported ‘free speech.
However, the university declared an investigation and stated that it was “concerned by reports that behaviours displayed on the occasion fell short of what we expect.”
University officials have refused further comment. Professor Luckhurst was not allowed to speak.
