''Rent Strikers' to face disciplinary action from University of Manchester after barricading themselves in buildings
Students who barricaded themselves inside University of Manchester buildings last month will face disciplinary action, the institution has confirmed.
“This response to student occupations is unprecedented, and proves that the university feels threatened by students making their voices heard and taking action for better conditions. We condemn the University of Manchester’s decision to pursue serious disciplinary action against these students. Later this afternoon, the University of Manchester confirmed what action it is taking against the protesters. A spokesperson said: “We understand and support the rights of our students to peaceful protest – that freedom has been reflected in our response to these ongoing occupations over several weeks.
