Even though we can all feel very sorry for the fact that Jason Arday has committed suicide due to the huge adverse publicity he had over the plagiarism accusations and other achievements he claimed which were questionable, to say the least, the fact is that because Cambridge University wanted to believe him so much that they failed to carry out the necessary due diligence before appointing him. It appears that universities have their own woke agenda and Arday fitted what they wanted. Contrast this behaviour with the attitude towards scientists who challenge the prevailing orthodoxy. People like Henrik Svensmark from yesterday's post, or Peter Ridd who questioned the state of the Great Barrier Reef. There have been many others.
This article by Nathan Cofnas gives the background to the Arday story.
