The UCU Left is a national organisation of University and College Union activists. It is committed to ensuring that the new union has a democratic structure through which members can determine policy, and elected officers and professional officials can be held accountable. It seeks to defend educational equality, and to oppose the consequences of neo-liberal marketisation. It is opposed to all forms of racism, sexism, oppression and imperialism.

NEC Election 2008

Election Resources

UCU members need representatives on the NEC who will fight alongside them. Our NEC should be made up of the best local and regional activists who stand up for and mobilise UCU members. They need to be representatives who truly make themselves accountable to the members and they need to reflect the dynamism of our union, women and men, black and white, gay and straight, disabled and non-disabled.
