I¹m an ex-Middlesex lecturer as well. It was always a fairly brutal and instrumentalist place. However, what is currently happening takes the biscuit. I would not be surprised if this triggers some more radical action against the executive.

That's terrible. The philosophy dept. have shown and continue to show far more business acumen than the thought leaders (sic) who are trying to purge them for not being cretino-corporate enough. I'm a former MDX student and lecturer.
