“🚨 BREAKING - Oxford Union scraps Namal Rajapaksa address

The Oxford Union has cancelled a planned address by Sri Lankan MP Namal Rajapaksa, following mounting pressure from British Tamils and student organisations across the country.

In a statement to Cherwell, Oxford’s independent student-run newspaper, Oxford Union President Katherine Yang said the decision was taken after students raised serious concerns about their safety and ability to participate.”

Kudos to all who participated!  A telling outcome that justice and accountability will not let up for the next Rajapakse generation. 

Anan.
