'They're Gagging Us' – Photography from the Picket Line

On Wednesday the 4th March, SCAN visited the picket-lines to talk to demonstrators and to take photographs of the strike action. This was also the day that UCU members protested in Alexandra Square, then later outside of University House. The group stood silently outside the Human Resources Department, covering their mouths in protest of the University 'gagging' their voices.

This article presents some of the photography taken by SCAN's Editor, Ruth Walbank, on the day.
