The UCU's reputation for being ineffective may change, but not until the whole union works together. Jo has a lot to learn about some aspects, and the hard left loons spoiling for a fight won't make supporting members with issues that need negotiated outcomes any easier.

Why is she Grady and not O'Grady?

Are you seriously asking why her name is spelled a particular way? What a ridiculous, irrelevant and ignorant question.
