We want to remind you to read and sign Fightback's petition against an ongoing motion to establish 'protocols' at the Murdoch NTEU branch. The draft motion sets a bad precedent allowing elected officials to be ejected. It's an anti-democratic power.

Med Sci staff at University of Sydney will walk off work on Wednesday! Uni management wants to sack the ENTIRE Physiology & Pathology staff and make them reapply for fewer positions. A staggering attack on crucial research & teaching in a pandemic. Support them! facebook.com/events/8199025…

TONIGHT: Our regular online meeting from 5.30PM. Please come along for updates and reports and building actions: facebook.com/events/9927618… Agenda: 'form of words' reiterating the need to protect democratic structures in NTEU after 'protocols' motion passed Murdoch's BC.

Incredibly, the protocols motion was passed by Murdoch BC in the past fortnight. It seeks to control dissent of horizontal democratic groups like NHEAN, Casualised, Unemployed & Precarious Uni Workers AU, NTEU Fightback! and other casual or student networks within the NTEU against bad policies, e.g. the JPF.

Officials policing USyd MedSci student occupation: 'The cuts today are... unjustified. When we organise a rally as we did at today's NTEU, we make collective decisions about what we're going to do in that rally ... it didn't involve an occupation of F23, maybe one day it will...'

Officials later apologising for supressing horizontal democratic organisation by students. But neither should happen— this should be good evidence against Murdoch-styled protocols. Students don't get a vote at NTEU meetings so why supress their democratic activity?
