Davies, who was knighted in 2000, spent 20 years working in government before he took the LSE job in 2003. He had been a special adviser at the Treasury, head of the Audit Commission, head of the CBI, deputy governor at the Bank of England and head of the Financial Services Authority.

He said he had never before experienced attacks such as those meted out by the Home Office. “This kind of bullying and intimidating behaviour is just totally unacceptable. They are not even arguing on the facts,” he said.

Several LSE governors fear research funding may now be in jeopardy. One governor said: “The behaviour is beyond the pale and is more suited to a communist dictatorship than a democracy.”

Not sure why they chose communist dictatorship. Just a good old fashioned dictatorship seems adequate!

And this is on a fundamental civil rights issue. How much more do people need to here, before they realise what this government is about?

The bigger the bully the less they should be able to relax. This country isn't getting INTO phpbb_a dictatorship, it has got INTO phpbb_one. The more people who are disenfranchised by the government means that the likelihood that someone who has the ability to do something about it will emerge. I can't wait for that day.

It's the LSE. From their angle (and from mine), it is a commie dictatorship.
