London Metropolitan University UCU (Chair) UCU National Executive Committee

Dear colleagues,

I wish to send solidarity greetings on behalf of myself and London Metropolitan University UCU to you in your struggle with your management.

The attempt to cut your pay and impose worse terms and conditions upon you is an outrage that the whole union has to stand firm against. Your decision to take strike action, starting next Tuesday, to signal to your management that you will resist them is an inspiration to us all. Particularly as it is clear many other college (and university) principles are looking to see the outcome of your fight as they contemplate similar attacks on their own staff.

As unfortunate veterans of many such attempted management attacks at London Met we know both how difficult and how essential your fight is, and as such we pledge to do everything in our power to provide you with solidarity. Your fight truly is a 'local dispute of national significance' and as such you will have the steadfast support of London Met UCU and myself as a member of the UCU National Executive.

In solidarity

Mark...
