Low voter turnout raises questions of morale in UCU
Article Abstract:
Members of the University and College and Union (UCU) were disillusioned due to the confusing nature of the ballot papers with 176 candidates standing for 70 different positions. This confusion led to a very low turnover in the union's first elections, hence newly elected members are being questioned on the authenticity of ballot papers.
