1. I don’t normally read Nick Cohen’s column in the Observer. Ever since he ‘groped’ me at the photocopier (zero marks for originality) at work when I was an admin assistant in my early 20s I have avoided being anywhere near him. But I do think he is a total creep.
2 But following a culture war/cancel culture debate on here where his behaviour has been discussed, I read his recent offering. I’m posting this primarily because I am angry about that piece....
3 His assault on me would not be considered a serious sexual assault but lurking in the shadows to lay your hands on an underling (or anyone) is not to my mind compatible with the position he presents. Jolyon Maugham is right to raise this (irrespective of his own behaviour).
4 The piece made me angry, because in my direct experience Mr Cohen himself is highly protected by an institution and its functions.
