Demands will be posted at the UEA occupation blog shortly
From last night
Quick update for the night: Relations with security have taken a much more positive twist with previously hostile members leaving and new staff arriving and discussing things with the students. The University have been in contact with the occupants and some small scale negotiations have started.
Also, just to clarify on a previous point, the union has not yet voted on the occupation (this will happen tomorrow) but are currently obliged to support student protest. Whether they support us or not as a specific action will be decided tomorrow.
Today latest news
There will be a read in and discussion throughout the day and anyone who wants to come along is welcome. Also, the uni has made a very weak offer, in exchange for ending the occupation they will grant three of the students a one hour meeting with the vice chancellor. This has been unanimously rejected twice. The reason being that by giving up the occupation we lose all potential leverage and have no doubt that the vice chancellor would quickly dismiss all our demands. Thankyou for all the support so far, it is very much appreciated.
