UCEA have once again shown a complete lack on integrity. Last week they went away to discuss improving their pay offer. Today they have shut that down and openly attacked staff.
We need every member, student and supporter to RT this thread.

This was one of the textbooks that first got me interested in medical law, so I’m very excited to have my hands on a copy of the latest edition 👏🏻 19 year old Anna would never have believed that one author would supervise her LLM dissertation, and another would examine her PhD!
