Strike report - day 6 (Mon 2 Dec)
3 December 2019
Day 6 Brief Report: Picketing continued across the majority of central 果冻影院 sites. Since the beginning of our action we have distributed ~30,000 leaflets to staff and students across the 果冻影院 campus, including a locally-designed leaflet to encourage student support.
Campus was extremely quiet yesterday morning. Thanks to the many members who are striking at home, some departments effectively closed. But this is also an active strike campaign. Alongside the meetings, rallies and marches, many union groups in departments continue to organise Teach-Outs that are proving popular with staff and students.
Tomorrow鈥檚 Strike Committee meeting will take place at 12:00 in the Tudor Room, Imperial Hotel, 61-66 Russell Square, London WC1B 5BB. Teach-Outs take place immediately after.听
FE staff at Tower Hamlets College have sent us a message of support. They are on strike tomorrow and Wednesday over pay and insecure contracts, and will join us for the #IncludeUS rally (see below)
