I don&#8217;t think this is a very sound argument it suggests three things that science should be universal, that it should be above politics and that the UCU boycott is descriminating on the basis of &#8220;ethnicity, religion&#8230;etc&#8221;.

With its current issue it is offering to subscribers a copy of zionut Melanie Phillips&#8217;s favorite book, The Islamist, by extremist Muslim-turned-extremist Neocon Ed Husain (next issue will offer Jordan&#8217;s biography I presume).
