  <body>&lt;p&gt;Negotiations have moved to ACAS and will continue this week, with progress made on some individual cases but management refusing to meet our demand for no compulsory redundancies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Strikers continue to travel around speaking at workplaces and community centres, gathering support and increasingly, offering encouragement to others considering strike action.&lt;/p&gt;

  <summary>&lt;p&gt;The Tower Hamlets College Strike continues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Teachers again affirmed support for continuing the indefinite strike action in a mass meeting Tuesday. About 150 people voted to stay out, with 13 abstentions and no votes against. At the meeting a number of people expressed their understandable concerns about surviving longer with no income and more people talked about how students were suffering, but many more people argued that the students know what we're doing and support us.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>
