#FightForHealthJobs proud to be standing up for this, proud to be stood alongside so many amazing colleagues and students speaking out. University of Liverpool it’s not ok to treat people like this…it’s time to stop the ‘redundancies’

Final days of recruiting to this study. Particularly looking for some dads to take part. Please share with any groups you think might be able to help - or take part yourself…

Why we are striking again. When bosses try to sack people for 'failing' against criteria they were never asked to meet in the first place, workers say No. Not because of numbers, or that it's a pandemic. Just because it's wrong & threatens all jobs.

University of Liverpool UCU Won Its Pensions Back

Wow. University of Liverpool UCU Won Its Pensions Back have battled with University of Liverpool and managed to get from 47 ridiculous redundancies to 2. The work continues with ten days strike action as of tomorrow...

10 days of strike begin today because @livuni won't protect 2 jobs in a workforce of roughly 7,000. When we say no compulsory redundancies we mean it. Join our digital rally at midday Friday with Jo Grady bit.ly/SolidarityRall…

On campus rally Monday 9th also midday.

To my psychologist connections, can anyone connect me to either a Neuropsychologist or Organisational or Health Psychologist from an ethnic minority background who might be willing to collaborate and be a panellist in one of SNAPBAM event. Please feel free to get in contact.

This has been a long, hard fight. But we will not allow a single brilliant colleague to be unjustly sacked based on dodgy, anti-intellectual nonsense. We will #FightForHealthJobs to the very end. University of Liverpool need to do the right thing this morning and withdraw the last 6 redundancies

Negotiations between UoL and University of Liverpool UCU Won Its Pensions Back this morning. Let's hope this can end. Save the jobs of brilliant academics and colleagues and start rebuilding UoL's reputation #FightForHealthJobs

My university wants us to accept that it can sack people on a whim, for 'failing' against criteria they were never asked to meet. We have been taking industrial action because if that principle succeeds, no job anywhere is safe. Stop the sackings or we strike again. University of Liverpool UCU Won Its Pensions Back

I would like to work with my colleagues when the new term starts. Students need them too. School of Psychology will lose its soul if they are sacked.
