ALT It has been incredibly rewarding working with Vicky on NEC. A key motion that we worked on, that really highlights her skills at bridging divides and empowering members was the motion that outlined the provisions for consultations on the USS and four fights disputes. This motion ultimately gave members the choice to be consulted separately on these distinct disputes, and the members chose to acknowledge the progress on USS, whole continuing the unresolved four fights dispute. We also worked closely on developing motions for congress on covid. Vicky is incredibly skilled at integrating trade union concerns with complex scientific issues, and has a thorough understanding of health and safety concerns and mitigations. UCU should lead the way as an employer by employing best practice in its own workplace, and I believe that with Vicky as GS it would.
