The students of the University of Bradford have occupied the luxurious management suite of the University of Bradford, after an emergency student meeting to address the government's proposals to cut Higher Education funding and raise tuition fees. The occupation was called after the Vice Chancellor of the University, Mark Cleary, refused to commit to publicly opposing the government's proposals.
