November 6, 2017 - London, UK. 6th November 2017. LSE students and supporters protest against the homophobic abuse that Daniel, one of the LSE cleaners, has been subjected to over the past 10 months outside a talk the LSE is hosting ''LGBT Rights: what next?''. Complaints by Daniel and his union have been brushed aside and he has been threatened with disciplinary action for making some of them. His case against employer Noonan will go to tribunal in January. The students accuse the LSE of hypocrisy, boasting about its promotion of gay rights but has refused to take any action; although the cleaning contract is outsourced to Noonan, the LSE has full control over hiring and firing of cleaners and if they had ordered action to be taken Noonan would have complied. They call on the LSE to apologise and commit to zero tolerance of homophobic and racist behaviour at all levels throughout the institution and to sack all homophobic bullies. The students moved onto LSE property outside the building were the talk was taking place despite attempts by security to stop them, but failed to gain entry to the building. They made a lot of noise outside, then marched around to the Kingsway entrance to make more noise before going for a brief protest outside the main LSE entrance. As I left they were going back to protest outside the talk. Peter Marshall ImagesLive (Credit Image: © Peter Marshall/ImagesLive via ZUMA Wire)
