5 years industrial action & our sector conference voted to reballot again
University staff & students deserve a fair deal
Unis can't continue to run on fumes & goodwill. The damage is deep. @UCEA1 must bring a decent offer from employers to start rebuilding some trust. #ucuRISING
For those trying to understand why employers are playing hardline, engaging in bad faith negotiation, or not negotiating at all, I refer you to this quote in the @guardian last year. (I'll retweet this every day, or as often as I remember.) #OneOfUsAllOfUs theguardian.com/education/20…

I think the UK would be a much better place if Oxbridge PPE degrees were scrapped. They really haven't delivered much to taxpayers in recent years.
We’re protecting students and taxpayers against rip-off degree courses.
We’re limiting the number of students taking courses that:
❎ Have high drop-out rates
❎ Don’t lead to good jobs
❎ Leave young people with poor pay and high debts
ALT Graphic with text: Protecting students and taxpayers. Our priorities, grow the economy.

Britain’s grim winter of strikes, falling incomes and a worsening NHS crisis is not some unfortunate series of events
It’s the inevitable result of a decade of Tory austerity that steadily weakened the state’s capacity to respond to shocks

@katejosephs @CycleSheffield Sheffield as the outdoor city and with its hills should be leading the UK on electric bike usage, instead we are sat watching every city around us develop this before us. Can anyone inject some ambition and delivery?

Why am I on strike today?
THREAD 1/7
I’m on strike today in solidarity with colleagues who are paid far too little (real terms pay is down 25% since 2009) and who can’t afford strike deductions from their pay. @ucu #ucuRISING
