Cambridge students disrupt talk by Rolls Royce boss in protest against role in arms trade
STUDENT activists at the University of Cambridge have disrupted a talk by Rolls Royce chief executive Warren East in protest against the luxury car manufacturer’s role in the global arms trade.
Demilitarise Cambridge stormed the event, held in Keynes’s Hall at Kings College on Thursday evening, and played a prerecorded message from Yemeni journalist Ahmad Algohbary describing the use of the company’s engines in “sustaining the Saudi coalition-led war in Yemen,” before being removed by porters.
The group encouraged attendees to follow them out and boycott the talk.
