Expel students who threaten academics on campus, says John Mann

I had a look at the UCU website and "In the News Section" and there is not mention of this at all. I would have thought that this would be a very urgent and compelling issue for the Union, the safety of academics at work, the issuing of death threats, the disruption of academic events etc etc. Apologies if I missed it but I can't see any mention at all? What are we paying our due for I wonder?

The only good TERF ......???? Masked student protesters on campus demanding that colleagues be sacked for holding entirely legal and honest opinions which are contrary to their own??? We allowed this kind of behavior on our campus and this is just the consequence in my view. I make these comments irrespective of the merits of the debate one way or another but just concerning the coercive way it was conducted and our shameful acceptance of this. Nothing will be done and it will get worse.

If you think that then you've not met that many academics. Why not pop along to your local University's English, History or Sociology departments. You'll find plenty of academics there who think threatening to kill a colleague is perfectly fine (so long as that colleague stands accused of wrongthink).
