Further information about the conference can be found in both Mike Buchanan’s web site and the Voice for Men web site. In each case scan/search the side bar for articles about specific aspects of the conference, such as for example Paul Elam’s speech regarding gynocentrism. Other related material is available on Youtube such as this interview with Mark Pearson.
While there were no protesters at this conference, the media refused to provide coverage and the Facebook page for the organising group, A Voice for Men, was taken off-line during the conference.
Further, during the conference planning phase Amnesty UK refused to provide a venue for conference.
