On Thursday the 5th June 50 students forced access into their universities administration building at the University of Manchester. Although the Vice-president was on holiday in Austria (paid for with students fee's) a clear message was sent that action will continue next year.

On Thursday the 5th June 50 students forced access into their universities administration building at the University of Manchester. Wielding whistles, party poppers and horns the students made their dissatisfaction clear with the neo-liberal model that is being implemented upon them. Despite Vice-Chancellor Alan 'call me president' Gilbert being on holiday (paid for with studetn fees no doubt), a clear message was sent that student dissatisfaction will continue to lead to action against the universities administration in the coming year. Carrying a large banner reading "Reclaim the Uni - See You Next Year" the Reclaimista's then held a picnic in the space outside the adminsitration buildings.

SEE YOU NEXT YEAR ALAN
