Other universities debating tonight are: Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, Manchester, Newcastle, Westminster, Swansea, Essex, Glasgow, Southampton, Sheffield Hallam, Queen’s University Belfast, the New College of the Humanities and the London School of Economics (LSE).

You can keep abreast of the results on the BARD website. At the moment it is reassuring to see so many debating societies opposing a ban on all animal research.
