Hi Chris,this is interesting.
I'm a member of Unite and unaware of this campaign by UCU. Can you provide some background?
Thanks,Giuseppe

An interesting story for ac.uk sysprogs. I am part of the UCU union which recently requested members refuse any work related to student assessment. For this reason I refused (very apologetically) all support requests regarding the student electronic coursework system I built. In each refusal I explained the reason and asked them to talk to senior management if it caused them a problem.
So far as I can tell, this managed to worry people quite high up at the university.
Imagine the impact of all IT staff at every university withholding labour for a single day... Imagine a sysprogs union...
