Future Tory MPs no doubt. https://www.dumptheguardian.com/education/2022/nov/18/eton-college-apologises-after-allegations-pupils-jeered-visiting-state-schoolgirls Eton College apologises after allegations pupils jeered visiting state schoolgirls Private school sanctions a number of boys after investigation into misogynistic language and racial slurs Eton College has apologised and “sanctioned” a number of pupils after allegations that a group of girls visiting from a nearby state school were subjected to misogynistic language, racial slurs and jeering. The boys’ private school near Windsor, Berkshire, told the BBC that an investigation took place into the incident which occurred during a speech by Nigel Farage last week. A person, who said they were a parent of one of the girls who attended the speech, wrote on social media anonymously that the students were booed inside the lecture theatre and were subjected to “racial slurs” and “generally misogynistic comments”. They said of the private school pupils: “Their behaviour was awful.” The poster also said that Eton boys had cheered Farage’s “worst comments on migrants and Covid”. The college told the BBC it had apologised “unreservedly” for the “totally unacceptable” behaviour. Farage said the atmosphere during his talk was “riotous”. In 2013, the Salisbury Diplomatic Society hosted the then Ukip leader at Eton for a talk called Europe: In or Out? |
