Manchester students share spiking testimonies amid boycott

More students have shared testimonies of being spiked as a campaign to boycott nightclubs across the UK goes ahead.

Jess Walmsley, who works at the University of Manchester's student newspaper, said she had received around 50 reports of spiking incidents in recent weeks.

Victims in Preston and Liverpool have also recently come forward to police.

Ms Walmsley said the boycott against clubs was "making a stand" to ensure safety on nights out.
