Having just watched your Trigernometry interview Will, I felt obligated to donate and let you know what a true inspiration you are to all of us who are self-censoring on a daily basis. If my wife and I arrived at a parents evening to find you across the table it would feel like we'd won the lottery. Much love.

The woke movement is such an obvious attack on liberal democracy. Anyone convinced by this prosaic pedagogical dogma in this day and age should be ashamed.

I'm a teacher, and often self-censor because of the woke agenda that is so prevalent. Stay strong, man!

Hey Will my wife and I have been following your story and we're hoping that ultimately this setback will lead onto bigger and better things. We enjoyed your lecture (our 14 year old daughter will be watching it soon) and interview on triggernometry. All the best Rob and Lisa

Disappointed, but not surprised by their choices. Weak leadership from a school with a reputation for producing leaders. Pathetic members of staff opposing topics for debate. Get rid of them instead.
Matt White | £2
I really wish I could give more. I too am an English teacher and was forced out of my job for similar reasons: creating balanced debate on toxic masculinity and third wave feminism. I wholly agree with your stance on balanced debate and the importance of the development of critical thinking through discussion on so called 'contentious' issues. I firmly believe there are a great number of teachers who feel the same but are afraid to speak out. Personally, I feel that my only outlet and method of protest is through writing LinkedIn posts calling cancel culture out as much as possible. A very menial and futile effort but better than the alternative of being completely silenced. Best of luck for the future.

I appreciate your courage and integrity. You set a great example for your pupils and children. I came here after seeing you on Triggernometery.

Someone having a spine and stand for freedom of speech and debatte is a rare gift for our society. The growth of the fascits Frankfurt School bs is a challenge for our freedom. Best of luck!

It was a good education that made you stand and speak the truth. More teachers like Will please.

Keep the faith and stay strong.. Donating after seeing your interview on triggernometry

You may have seen today Jordan Peterson, 'You will come to believe what you write. You will come to accept as true what you say. You will pathologize your deepest intuitions by lying. And then when you are in trouble there will be nothing to save you.' With education being one of next big thing for disruption via the internet you could be in a great position to start online teaching to a classroom of potentially millions.... good luck marking that homework.

Purpose of education is to prepare kids for the big wide world, not to restrict their development
Douglas McNeish | £10
Thank you for standing up for the right to challenge the elite and their dogma, and for defending masculinity from the vicious onslaught by critical theorists.
Edgar | £20
