In a letter to the university regulator, the Free Speech Union (FSU) claims that Prof Tooley’s suspension was prompted by a series of claims made by his wife, from whom he is in the process of divorcing. “These allegations appear to be vexatious in nature and relate to Prof Tooley’s behaviour in the couple’s private life, e.g. that he keeps a toy gun in his bedside drawer,” the letter says. The allegations from Prof Tooley’s ex-wife “have no bearing on his fitness to carry out his public role as vice-Chancellor of Buckingham” and “should have been dismissed as “tittle-tattle”, the FSU say.
