Same, same. US mainstream media obsessed with the blame game and anything but tackling the root cause of an occupied people who for decades have been denied their rights to freedom and self-determination. On CNBC

May I politely suggest to non-UCU members who benefit from the pending USS changes, to the tune of tens of £000s (and to those members who for whatever reason did not strike), please consider supporting those who took action and lost salary for your gain: ucu.org.uk/fightingfund

Sharing this fabulous thread. Reading them has meant a lot to me as a late, still working it out lesbian. Yes, it's an extremely complicated position I've found myself in, but there we are! 😬🤣 Enjoy these wonderful poems 🏳️‍🌈

My employer SOAS University of London stole my wages again, but even more this month. This time deductions do include some strike days, but most of what they call 'strike' is a marking boycott; I did research, writing, admin, email, meetings w/ staff and students, at least 95% of my job

Please donate if you can. Colleagues are holding the line on the MAB and they're losing pay for ALL of us. If you can afford it, please help 🙏

With energy and climate policy taking centre stage in the build up to the next general election, this is a vital job at an exciting time.

Please share!

There's lots of tweets discussing the now visible impacts of mab on students. It's really mixed emotions as someone on MAB. We really didn't want to end up in a situation that impacts students. But the MAB isn't like striking, where you see colleagues on a picket 1/N

Today Leeds University UCU & @uolunison strikers leaflet & politely explain our dispute to prospective students at University of Leeds Open Day.
The VC has hugely underestimated the impact of the MAB & now strike caused by SMT intransigence.
Our VC & UCEA must come to the table.

If you’re sickened by this story, know that
-over 70% of women in prison are there for non-violent offences;
-around 3 in 5 women in prison have children under the age of 18; and
-95% of children have to leave their home when their mother goes to prison
