More University Occupations!

Occupations have taken place today at SOAS  (100 students) and Manchester Metropolitan (150) Universities today, followed closely by the UWE (50).  I first noticed this though Lenin's Tomb's twitter page (original articles posted below, from SW).

They are protesting variously against the cuts in education, job losses and some are asking the university's vice chancellor both to speak out against the cuts and to initiate a statement for other vice chancellors to sign. 

Any one who is against these cut - to all public services in the UK - ought to support these occupations, and indeed join the students on Day X, Wednesday 24th November, the day of mass walkouts, protests and potential occupations in towns and cities around the country.
