Strike Day #8 (4 Dec 2019)

What a final strike day. The foggy sunrise provided a photogenic start to our picketing here at Essex. See Twitter @UCUEssex for photos. Then after several hours of music, chatting to staff and students, honking cars and whistling (I am keen to hide those whistles for next timeĀ  šŸ˜‰ ~Lorraine!),Ā  the students marched onto the squares.

This afternoon there is a teach-out happening in Wivenhoe

And from tomorrow….we are working to contract/taking ASOS

We await news on national negotiations so watch this space re what the next stage will be.
