Does @GoldsmithsUoL pay for managers' gas-guzzlers? The same people that declared a climate emergency in 2019? TaxPayers' Alliance: 'It's hypocritical for chauffeur-driven scholars on six-figure salaries to be bemoaning budget cuts & campaigning on climate change' @GoldsmithsUCU
Love my team!!!! @goldsmithsuol managers bought me this Jag as I've been a bit down since the fraud investigation. Parked up – and LOL someone told me that building is the "student union"! Hope nobody thinks I've been chatting to those wasters 😅 #UCUstrike @ucu @GoldsmithsUCU

Reminds me of the other day when someone asked Goldsmiths warden @fcorner, "What's it like to have geniuses on your staff?" She said, "Those poloneck-wearing frauds will be existentially out of a job pretty soon." Then showed her teeth in a big smile ❤️ #HappyWomensDay #UCUstrike
When asked, “How does it feels to marry a genius?” Marie Curie said: “Go ask my husband.” From the beginning of the 20th century, her example has enabled the role of women in science to be improved, but more generally in the world of work. #HappyWomensDay2022 #pint22

🔥💪✊🎉👏👏👏A FANTASTIC victory for Short Course Tutors at @GoldsmithsUoL against the exploitative practices of 'uberfication' by senior management. If lawyers are the only people SMT will listen to, then this restructure will prove very costly indeed.
We have some good news! We have won our case with @GoldsmithsUoL, in recognition of our worker status and rights ✊✊✊ this is a real victory for casualised workers in HE. Thank you to you all, @LauraFoundation, @GoldsmithsUCU and @LeighDay_Law who made this possible.

Fight goes on, for teachers/staff fucked by inhuman managers, & for students seeking refunds for classes missed due to managerial shambles. Education is no commodity & centres of critical thought are core to functioning democracies! #ucustrikes @goldsmithsucu @ucu @GoldFeesStrike

Goldsmiths record on queer stuff is exemplary – as a look at our website shows. We've handpicked stock imagery to showcase our commitment to diversity. If you want to learn queer history, just come chat to us managers 🌈 #UCUstrikes @goldsmithsuol @GoldsmithsUCU @GoldFeesStrike

All this fuss about pensions is useless. We all know that in a few short years planet earth will resemble a large crême brûlée. Which reminds me of the wonderful meal we had at the managers' club last night. #UCUstrikes @GoldFeesStrike @GoldsmithsUCU @UCU
Day 3 at work since strikes, but y'all should know that staff at @QMUL are currently UNPAID because QMUL is docking 100% of salary INDEFINITELY until staff say they are willing to reschedule teaching missed due to strike. Oh, and during this time my pension was slashed by 46% 😰

Don't worry the blood is spilling within our elite managers' cocktail bar as well. Oh no wait – that's @fcorner's Bloody Mary from this morning! Better order a new shagpile. #UCUstrike @GoldsmithsUCU @GoldsmithsSU @GoldFeesStrike #OneOfUsAllOfUs

Totally unfair and one-sided. We managers HAVE compromised with unions. We've ALLOWED them to exist. And meaningful dialogue? We're talking about university intellectuals here guys 😂 #UCUstrike #OneOfUsAllOfUs @GoldFeesStrike @goldsmithsucu @ucu
“They clearly had no interest in meaningful dialogue or compromise with unions,” @david_labi on @GoldsmithsUoL SMT after being removed from his MA course for withholding fees as part of @GoldFeesStrike Article by @ellajglover for @HUCKmagazine bit.ly/35AIjmw

All the flak @goldsmithsuol are getting shows people don't take time to check our site. Clearly we're about opening minds. As long as they're not critical of our management decisions. Oh and diversity too – except in study topics and personnel. #UCUstrikes @GoldsmithsUCU @ucu

Replying to @GoldsmithsUoL
@GoldsmithsUoL SMT plan to sack 32 staff & the = of 20 fulltime lecturers in English & Creative Writing & History. In protest we will be tweeting the #ABCsOfTheSMT highlighting their incompetence & the brilliant ppl of Goldsmiths. Each week=another letter @FCorner @GoldsmithsUCU

At Goldsmiths we haven't updated our position since last year – so last year's video explainer still applies. Despite #goldstrike we won't budge. It’s the end-game now, and we're cashing in as fast as we can. Don't you scruffy lunatics understand the basics of capitalism?

This is truly remarkable to see after years of doing nothing whilst African and middle Eastern refugees have drowned in the Mediterranean.
EU announces it has agreed unanimously amongst all member countries to take in Ukrainian refugees fir up to 3 years without asking them to first apply for asylum. Just been announced following a meeting of EU Interior ministers

New week and #Day8 of #UCUStrikes. Last week, UUK decided to cut our pensions by on average 35%. Bring that anger and rage to the picket lines and let's show them that we won't accept it. We pushed back and defended our pension in 2018, we can do it again.

Hear hear..my thanks & respect to my students who stuck necks out @GoldFeesStrike to support staff exercising their right to strike, in return are bullied & intimidated by #university management who's *completely lost the plot* #Goldstrike #UCUstrike @goldwatch_ @GoldsmithsUCU

Look at the support and dismay @FCorner @GoldsmithsUoL - this will be your legacy. #GoldStrike #DaveOfGoldsmiths
Just been kicked off my MA by @GoldsmithsUoL, for withholding my fees this yr in support of @ucu @GoldsmithsUCU @goldsmithssu @GoldFeesStrike . Due to strike action I missed half classes last term and half this term, for which I'm still supposed to pay £4k+ upfront. #UCUstrike
