As part of the spiked's Down With Campus Censorship! campaign, we are producing a series of interviews with students, sharing their experiences of the university thought police.

Here, Aubrey Allegretti, former editor of the University of Sussex's student newspaper, the Badger, shares his story about the students' union's attempts to squish his editorial freedom.
