- Motion text
Congress believes that there is no justification for trade unions to continue to use the social media platform 'X'. Elon Musk has failed to tackle racist, sexist, transphobic and other forms of discriminatory abuse on the platform, and the platform's AI tool has been used to create and publish harmful, non consensual sexualised images of women and girls.
Congress resolves:
1. that UCU, at all and every level (national, regional, branch, all committees, etc.), must leave X
2. to encourage all UCU members to leave X.
