🚨 SHEFFIELD ACTION GROUP OCCUPY ARTS TOWER 🚨
🪖 @sheffielduni take more money than any other UK uni from murderous arms companies - they must drop their extensive links to the arms trade
✊ and negotiate properly with @sheffielducu
OCCUPATION UPDATE : peaceful student protesters are being treated awfully by security. This is completely unacceptable ! If anyone is in Brighton please come down to Pavillion Parade to show your support ✊🏻
BREAKING 🥳 4 @LloydsofLondon insurers have ruled out their support for the West Cumbria Mine #StopWCM

This is just the beginning. Get involved 👉 https://t.co/wG4VE1AiEp
Despite huge increases in the number of university students, the proportion of working-class students is low and decreasing. Estimates suggest that in over half of higher education institutions, 5% or less of the student population come from working class backgrounds, (1/5)

🚨Fascist Scum Off Our Streets🚨
Encouraged by the escalating Hostile Environment, racist groups from elsewhere will try to spread divisive hate here at their "Midlands Says No" rally on the 2nd September.
Keep the date free - let's reject their attempt to speak for us.

The University of Manchester has sent out thousands of pounds of fines to rent strikers- who have been holding out for 8 months! This comes after the uni's use of bailiffs against students
Please donate whatever you can, and share the fundraiser widely✊

UPDATE: The 11 student activists subject to disciplinary action from UoM have received the outcomes of their hearings at the University Disciplinary Panel (UDP)
Read below for a statement from the students
⬇️
We've obtained documents that show how the University of Sheffield hired private investigators who went on to monitor candidates in a student election.
The file is heavily redacted, but appears to name individual students and outlines their manifesto for office at @SheffieldSU.
War criminals out of education!
We won't stand for our educational institutions being complicit in war crimes, workers rights abuses or climate catastrophe.
Disgusting behaviour from the university of Brighton. As we said with Manchester, the answer to repression is to keep going and hold eachother close
We will not be intimidated, we cannot be stopped.
These are the allegations University of Brighton is making. We want to respond directly, they did not communicate with us directly and instead are communicating through solicitors. We are peaceful and not destructive. We do not aim to commit any damage- Occupiers
‼️ Statement on Disciplinary Action ‼️
The University is taking unprecedented disciplinary action against 11 student activists.
Please sign our solidarity statement and call on the panel to reject these politically-motivated charges!

@UniofExeter IS GAMBLING WITH OUR FUTURE FOR PROFIT.
SHELL WOULD RATHER SEE THE PLANET BURN THAN CHANGE THEIR BUSINESS MODEL.
WE DEMAND THAT @UniofExeter CUT THEIR TIES WITH SHELL.
GET THE #SHELLOUT
Absolutely magnificent picket lines today. Magnificent mood and superb solidarity.
We have a meeting with @nxwestmidlands tomorrow. The ball is now in the companies court to come to the meeting with an offer our members can accept.
On Monday night students occupied the University of Dundee, protesting the exploitation of staff, students and planet.
Instead of engaging with the legitimate protest, security called the cops!
Read the full statement of what happened!
Pls retweet and follow! 💚🔥✊
🚨🚨 BREAKING: UoM have just used dozens of private baliffs to physically evict student protesters. Shame on @OfficialUoM that they would rather do this than consider basic demands for affordable rent. Any pretence that these scum care about student welfare is clearly bullshit.
Accuse student in Amsterdam & another out of the city of somehow also being in The Diamond occupation ✅
Fail to present evidence against students ✅
Long out the process for extra stress leading to suicidal feelings ✅
Care to explain @sheffielduni?
