Students who barricaded themselves inside University of Manchester buildings last month will face disciplinary action, the institution has confirmed.
In all, 11 students from the UoM Rent Strike group are facing disciplinary action, the protesters say. Now, a spokesperson for the university has also confirmed it will ‘commence the process of issuing legal proceedings to regain possession of our buildings’.
UoM Rent Strike said it is unmoved by this latest development, and has claimed ‘this action will not intimidate us’. It also said no crime was committed and no buildings were damaged in a statement posted on Twitter just before 1pm today (March 1).
