NO CLASS OF 2024 IN GAZA 🎓🇵🇸

As students graduate this year we cannot forget that 90,000 University students in Gaza have been stripped of this opportunity. Students have been killed, injured, displaced, and Universities destroyed in over 9 months of genocidal attacks by Israel

[Manchester Leftist Action @mcrleftaction]

Dozens of students at the University of Manchester used their graduation today to show solidarity with Gaza and protest the University’s complicity in the ongoing genocide 🇵🇸🇵🇸

Not sure why @MancAcademy think its ok to book Slaughter to Prevail, a Russian deathcore band based in Orlando with clear far right ties. Give them a call at 0161 275 2930 and see what this gig on Sunday is all about 1/2

The University of Manchester's extensive ties to BAE systems revealed.
BAE Systems is Europe's biggest arms company with a long a history of direct involvement in Israeli occupation and the killing of Palestinians. 🧵

@Narcomania @zlarkham14 Nowhere is fairly priced, but generally, if it's more expensive it will be better quality (except for catered halls). The worst places are Oak House and Whitworth Park, but everywhere has some issues

[UoM Rent Strike 2023 @rentstrikeUoM]

This is now the second peaceful university occupation in the last year to be violently evicted by bailiffs. We must resist the growing authoritarian trend of universities

Solidarity with students in Nottingham!

Yesterday evening at 7.30pm, we were informed by @CMACgroupUK that our coach from Manchester to London for the protest today had been cancelled due to "heightened media attention". They gave us too little time to book an alternative coach through their political cancellation

BREAKING: UoM has lied to staff and students, claiming to have "no involvement" in the Israeli defense sector.

In fact, they maintain several ties with arms companies that have direct links to the Israeli military. Read more below 👇

We demand lower rents and new cost of living support for students. This crisis is far from over and ongoing to get worse without intervention @OfficialUoM

Manchester student talking about the difficulties he has faced in the escalating cost of living crisis. Rents continue to rise while the student maintenance loan isn't, leaving us without the money needed to live
