Our thanks to Stu for this. The start of the piece:

An Oxford University student has become the latest accused rapist to have his case dropped against him after two years on bail [J4MB emphasis] amid wider public concern about the actions of police and prosecutors.

Oliver Mears, 19, was told he was to be found not guilty following a review of evidence just days before he was due to go on trial.

The Crown Prosecution Service said it decided to offer no evidence against Mr Mears after reviewing evidence handed to them by Surrey Police, some of which was only received last week. [J4MB emphasis] A police spokeswoman told the Times prosecutors decided to discontinue the trial “for a number of reasons”.

Mike Buchanan is a British men's rights activist (MRA) and anti-feminist. He was the founder and former leader (2013-20) of this party, and handed over the leadership to Elizabeth Hobson in May 2020.

J4MB remains the only party in the English-speaking world which is resolutely anti-feminist and campaigns for the human rights of men and boys on many fronts. Those rights are assaulted by states' actions and inactions in many areas, almost always to privilege women and girls. 20 such areas were explored in the party's 2015 general election manifesto.

In 2012 Mike launched The Anti-Feminism League and Campaign for Merit in Business. His Wikipedia page was created by a feminist, and remains largely the work of feminists.

Mike is the creator of the website Laughing at Feminists.

He has sole responsibility for organizing future International Conferences on Men's Issues (ICMIs) in Europe and North America, and was a key organizer of the London conferences in 2016, 2018 and the 120-speaker online conference in 2020.
