More #wagetheft , this time $3.5m stolen from casuals at La Trobe Uni. ⁦NTEU Victoria⁩ won’t stop campaigning until every cent is paid back and this broken university business model is dead, buried, cremated. ⁦🧵

Newcastle Uni has accumulated enough cash to undertake an ambitious program with with very little or no debt. Large operating surpluses were built on the hard work of staff who are now being jettisoned.

More cuts make savings target at Uni Newcastle campusmorningmail.com.au/?post_type=new…

University staff contribute in so many ways - nice to see NTEU members including historian & NTEU Victoria Swinburne University of Technology branch president Julie Kimber with Denise Drysdale on SBS Australia’s Who Do You Think You Are tonight 🙂

You never leave the NTEU, we are always there to shelter and protect you! 😄😄☂️☂️

Last chance to sign! University course and staffing decisions should be transparent, democratic and made by experts — not based on the size of a chequebook! Sign the petition to say no to the secret deal with the #RamsayCentre for Western Civilisation megaphone.org.au/petitions/univ…

The John Howard-led Ramsay Foundation are trying to throw money at our public universities to have them teach students an uncritical view of 'Western Civilisation'.

I stand with UQ staff in opposition to the #RamsayCentre there or at any Australian uni.
