75 million pounds sterling were paid by 12 Heads of States of Middle East research center 'independent' of the University of Oxford, according to a source quoted in The Independent. The diary provides an overview of prestigious UK universities that have accepted funding from dictatorial regimes. The paper refers to the resignation, on March 3, the director of the London School of Economics after it was recognized that the decision to accept 300,000 pounds (350,000 euros) endowment of a son Colonel Gaddafi, Seif al-Islam, was erroneous.
