Protestor glues themselves to floor during trans debate at the Oxford Union

Telegraph, 31 May 2023
A trans activist has glued themselves to the floor of the Oxford Union in protest of a talk by Prof Kathleen Stock.

Riz Possnett, a student activist, sat in front of Prof Stock and Union president Matthew Dick wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the words “No More Dead Trans Kids”.

Possnett was glued to the floor in front of the speakers and refused to move, while two other protesters stood up at different ends of the room, shouting and handing out leaflets.
