Over 100 students have occupied a conference centre at the University of Sussex in Brighton against proposed course cuts and job losses. The action comes after weeks of concerted campaigning during which the university management have failed to take away the threat of compulsory redundancies and course cuts.
The students described their action as "a display of support and solidarity for the UCU’s upcoming strike ballot. Furthermore, we stand in solidarity with all other workers at Sussex taking action against the cuts."
