Remarkable piece of research exploring the range of pro-social responses of zero responders to emerging threat. A must read.
Our new & ground breaking study of emergent public responses to a marauding knife attack on the London Underground is available as a pre-print on the Social Science Research Network (SSRN) whilst under review.@Keelepolicing @KeelePsychology papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…

Today is the first day I won’t be working in months (inc weekends). But I’m not having a day off, I’ll be picketing with @coventryucu. University workloads are unsustainable. I love my job, but I can’t provide the service students deserve while I’m at breaking point. #ucuRISING

Pls also tag @covcampus. Where VC John Latham is similarly threatening his staff with 100% pay deductions. This is bullying, vindictive, not to mention harmful to staff and students.
Let John know that disputes aren't resolved with cruelty.

I NEED EVERY SINGLE UCU MEMBER TO RT THIS
This is the biggest week in our history
Every single university takes strike action on Thursday and Friday
This week the balance of power shifts. 70,000 UCU members Vs 150 Vice Chancellors
Let’s leave nothing behind

*Well worth a read- CROWD SAFETY: SHOW STOPPAGES RISE*
This article explores the nuance behind the growing trend of artists initiating show stop.
Our Chair, @ericsstuart QPM is featured alongside colleagues, Professor Chris Kemp and Pascal Viot.
And again: bringing the crowds to City of Culture. Tip of the hat to @TheSquareMetre providing to frontline management all day - epic. bbc.co.uk
So good to be back managing crowds for real and bringing theory to life. #coventry #cityofculture #crowdmanagement
This was my very first thought. Traffickers just want the cash: they don’t care how they get it, and even more vulnerable groups will just become the next target.
NEW Theresa May tells MPs she does not support @pritipatel ‘s Rwanda asylum policy & warns it could lead to an increase in the trafficking of women and girls.
