Yesterday (March 28th) Stratford Campus was picketed by members of Amicus, Unison and GMB taking part of the National campaign to protect the Local Government Pension Scheme.
At Stratford large parts of the University was affected - there were no Library staff, No IT or AV Staff. The Student Information centre was closed as was the Psychology Help desk.
Members of catering, Student Services and Estate Services also took part in the largest organised strike since the General Strike. Amicus thanks all members that took part in the action with a special mention to the youngest picket Aaron Freeman. Highlights of the strike included the spectacular delivery method of the yellow pages that meant the driver didn't actually cross the picket lines, the white scooter rider that wen taround all the gates looking for a way in.
