Hugo Lunn: Ipso ruling

articlemain

In two articles published on 15 June 2023 and 21 June 2023, respectively headlined “Anger as student who called Jews ‘apex predators in capitalism’ readmitted to Durham University” and “Durham University is ‘urgently’ examining its decision to re-admit a student who called Jews ‘apex predators in capitalism’”, we reported on allegations made against Hugo Lunn in a misleading manner. Our articles reported, as fact, that Mr Lunn had shared “shocking messages”, some of which were antisemitic in nature. This was misleading; the allegations that Mr Lunn shared antisemitic messages are unproven and there is no official finding that Mr Lunn wrote the posts in question. This correction has been published following an upheld ruling by the Independent Press Standards Organisation.
