UCU statement and petition


As UCU General Secretary Jo Grady says workers’ money should fund jobs, pay and public services not weapons and war.

Watch the video here.

University and college union UCU will go back to the TUC Congress in September to build on last year’s historic motion supporting wages not weapons to demand investment in education, manufacturing and a fairer, greener future, not in militarism and war.

Stop the War supports the UCU campaign, and asks all our supporters to do so too before Congress begins. We will be at the TUC in September this year so watch out for updates.

Sign and share the petition.  It’s very important that trade unionists get behind this UCU campaign ahead of next month’s TUC congress.
