Publicity

This scam (or "insolvency" as Advent calls it) has received lots of media attention quite quickly. Articles have appeared in The Sun, on the BBC News website and at least two stories have been shown on TV via the BBC News channel. Radio interviews have also taken place.

But if you are affected by this (as either a member of Advent staff or an Advent Student) or just want to stop unfair, unscrupulous and amoral business practices then you need to give this issue more publicity.

There are several ways to that:

Taking joint legal action together (assuming we're 6,000 strong) seems like a good plan
