I have resigned as a reviewer for the Royal Society. I encourage others to do the same.

Dear editors,

Today I saw some news about the Royal Society which made me very uncomfortable. As a result, I am afraid I will withdraw my voluntary reviewing work for Royal Society. I will not after all be completing this review for Royal Society Open Science.

in reply to Dan Stowell

The #RoyalSociety is dead in the water. Three hundred and sixty-five years of history, and it's ended it as a beard for a facist. What an utterly utterly shameful end for a once-great society.
