I am very sorry to hear of Jeremy's death. I knew Jeremy through his work for Leeds AUT and then later UCU and he was an immensely likeable, warm and infectious person. For a long time he was a fixture of the local union branch. I have moved on and lost touch with a lot of the academic world so didn't hear of his death at the time but moved into the world of Transport where, inevitably, his work popped up on my radar so i thought I'd see how he was getting on, and discovered this. I am greatly saddened by this news but this is a lovely tribute to someone i remember very fondly. Jonathan White (now RMT)
