STUDENTS at a University College London (UCL) are calling for academic James Thompson to be stripped of his honorary professorship after he organised a conference on eugenics with far-right guests.

The annual London Conference on Intelligence held at the university has booked alleged white supremacists with neonazi links, such as Richard Lynn, who is said to belong to a group bankrolled by the Pioneer Fund.

The fund, founded by nazi sympathisers, has reportedly paid to give platforms to deposed BNP leader Nick Griffin and former KKK grand wizard David Duke.
