Email sent to members on 23rd February 2026.
Dear Members,
Ref: Vote of No Confidence in the Vice Chancellor, Chair of Council and University Executive Board
Apologies for a second email from us today, we decided to send 2 separate emails today as both items are so significant.
I am happy to inform you that the VONC Motion, which was approved overwhelmingly by our members at the meeting held on 18 February 2026, was sent to Jason Carter, Chief Governance Officer, and Jane Norman (VC) at 5pm on Friday, 20 Feb, 2026 . We asked it to be forwarded to all the relevant roles, including President of Uni, Council and Senate. Our sister unions: Unison and Unite also did the same, at the same time.
We are now in the process of contacting the press.
Many thanks again and full solidarity.
Lopa
(on behalf of branch committee).
