Birmingham University
EDM number 1065 in 2013-14, proposed by John McDonnell on 10/02/2014.
Categorised under the topics of Higher education and Students.
That this House notes with concern the extremely repressive measures Birmingham University has taken in recent years against students engaging in peaceful political protest, culminating in the latest suspension of five students, without any right of appeal and, bearing in mind the impact that suspension will have on the education of those final year students, calls upon the Vice Chancellor of Birmingham University to intervene to lift these suspensions and to review the university authorities' attitude to the freedom of speech of students.
This motion has been signed by a total of 17 MPs.
