University College London has said it is investigating allegations that a “secretive” conference has taken place on its campus for the past four years.

The university said it is seeking an explanation of a “potential breach of its booking policy” over the London Conference on Intelligence, hosted by an honorary UCL senior lecturer, Professor James Thompson.

According to a report in the London Student, the conference, which was first held in 2014, is alleged to have featured delegates with links to white supremacist groups.
