Demo against cuts at Salford university

Despite exams, 50 students and staff attended a lunchtime protest against swingeing cuts at Salford university yesterday, 24th May, including the closure of Italian and across the board reductions in staffing.

UCU speakers thanked students for their support. Paul Gerrard, expressing greetings from Salford against Cuts, called for support for the planned UCU strike action and for a massive turnout for the TUC's belated anti-cuts demo in October.
