What a day.
So, last night UCU said there was a proposal they wished to discuss at today’s reps briefing and NEC meeting. Read that proposal here. Picket lines at Essex saw lots of members turn up to prove that they did not want UCU to accept this proposal. This message was echoed across other UCU branches. The proposal was rejected by all branches represented at the head office briefing.
So strikes remain on. All welcome at picket lines. There’ll be an update from Steve Sangwine, National Treasurer & former branch President who was at yesterday’s briefing at Park Rd picket line at 10.15am tomorrow.
Thank goodness we didn’t eat up all the biscuit stash today then.
