I sadly can’t make it to my university’s physical picket today (for tedious bureaucratic reasons) but with all of you in spirit. Universities can be so much more than the sad race-to-the-bottom that we’re told to accept. Staff and students deserve and rightly expect better.
For those who can, I’d recommend joining us to fight for a better workplace for all https://my.ucu.org.uk/app/membership/member_quote
See you all tomorrow #ucustrike #UCUstrikesback
Cuts in my #pension (c.35%);
Falling pay (a real-terms decrease since 2009 of 20%);
#Inequalities throughout the system;
#Casualisation and #precarity;
Excessive workloads.
For these reasons, I'm #striking today, tomorrow and Wed.
Things cannot go on like this #ucuRISING #ucustrikesback #ucustrike
UCU rally, Kings Cross 13.00 30th November - try to get there.
