URGENT UKRI UPDATE
On Wednesday we gave UKRI 48hrs to reverse the suspension of its Equality, Diversity & Inclusion panel. It has not done so.
We are therefore calling on all UCU members with any voluntary positions at UKRI to resign.
Let us know if you've done so.
UCU has written to UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) calling on it to reverse its decision to suspend its advisory board on Equality, Diversity and Inclusion within 48 hours. If it refuses to do so, the union will call on its members to resign from voluntary positions with the funding body.
Had a fun evening with colleagues where we laughed and I got laughed at in a way where I laughed along.
Most of us were overworked (both task wise as well as emotional labour) so it's a much needed pressure valve release.
I'd like to think my brain is being smart and that's why I'm resisting the urge to order fried chicken.
In reality I think I just so sleepy that I'll get home and pass out before the delivery arrives.
In case you didn’t know, the Met Police in London looked to get a cut of all uses of police boxes in Doctor Who merch.
The U.K. Patent Office found against them, on the basis that, by now, a police box was just the TARDIS, and the Met were no Time Lords.
