On Saturday, news broke that Jason Arday, until recently a professor at Cambridge University, had been found dead. It came after weeks of intense media scrutiny and discussion of Arday’s credentials and life story, sparked by a blog post alleging he plagiarised parts of his PhD thesis. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has described his death as “a moment for reflection... reflecting on how things came to this.” So, how did they come to this?

Headlines: Police investigate alleged Swans sexual assault

Last Thursday, thousands of students across the country walked out of the classroom to protest the rise of One Nation. 

Videos of the protest went all over social media - but one in particular has raised some questions. 

And that was from One Nation, who went undercover at the protests.

And we had some questions. Like, is it legal to deceive people into being filmed? But also… are those death threats legal? We’ll explore it all in today’s episode.
