Critics slammed universities for 'poisoning' students' minds after a report claimed that half of them are teaching students a 'woke ideology'
More than half of Britain's universities are teaching students a "woke ideology", a new league table has claimed.The table, put together by right-wing think thank Civitas, found that many students were being given "trigger warnings" for upsetting material, and were being taught about "white privilege" in "a new moralism that reeks of hypocrisy".
A Conservative MP and former education the minister slammed the universities in light of the findings, calling the teaching "poisonous". The league table, put together by researcher Dr Richard Norrie, ranks universities for their "campus wokery" by looking through their websites, as well as national and local media.
Some other examples include Aberdeen University giving a trigger warning for Peter Pan because of its "emotionally challenging" content, and Chester University warning students reading the Harry Potter books that they "can lead to difficult conversations about gender, race, sexuality, class and identity".
