The proposed 39 redundancies will devastate the Faculty of Education & Social Sciences who I have worked closely with over the years on a #RightToFood
I urge the management of @LiverpoolHopeUK can reconsider these damaging cuts.

Disability Studies is more important now than ever.
As an alumni of the MA Disability Studies course who benefited significantly from studying on it, I assure you that it is a course worth keeping - not least because of its impact within the wider disabled academic community.

What a coincidence, the only thing missing from your article is a citation of me, your reviewer
For anyone who was hesitant about the cerulean Twitter alternative because figuring out how to use a new platform felt overwhelming: good news! I have done so and using it is EXACTLY the same as using Twitter.

The Education (Scotland) bill currently recognises Gaelic but not #BSL.
We’re working with @DeafAction, @RNID, @dbscotland, @ALLIANCEScot to make sure BSL and #deaf children’s needs are recognised too.
@Ross_Greer MSP let us know about the impact of the campaign so far.
