To paraphrase Phil Ochs, it’s always their class who leads us to war and always our class who dies. #NoWar 2/2
It’s happening again. @RCA are getting rid of 28 beloved Associate Lecturers in the School of Design 😡🤯 please sign our open letter and lets stop this ideological restructure and SMT’s attempt to ruin art and design education. solidarity 🔥🔥🔥 forms.gle/uQcCHwapLMCSPr…
✨REPORT ✨ @sheffielducu branch hv voted 94 - 0 to back the #PGRsAsStaff campaign, opposing the compulsory redundancies imposed by @DrJoGrady @ucu. Members were also dismayed at the *4%* pay offer to @UniteUCU & called on UCU to engage in proper negotiations with staff ✊

UCU members: We need to keep resourcing the PGRs as Staff campaign at current staffing levels UCU SMT still plans to reduce staffing for PGRs as Staff as the project apparently enters a new phase. This would be a mistake for the industrial objectives of the union. A 🧵
This statement is positive. It's come from the pressure that the MAB has created. Pressure must be maintained while negotiations continue. We can't call off the MAB for an interim agreement, we need a deal. Sign this to keep the pressure on: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

“This is a voluntary position (no salary)”
“This is a voluntary position (no salary)”
“Two university students held up a banner - now they’re banned from campus” @sheffielduni continues to crack down on free speech and peaceful protest. Thanks to @sheffieldtrib for covering this scandal. sheffieldtribune.co.uk/p/two-universi…
🚨It’s Horror Show after Horror Show, as management have tried to respond to the MAB. It’s been carnage at Exam Boards across the University and, unfortunately, the victims are mainly professional standards and academic rigour. Stories from across the University include: 1/11
Just like "stopping the boats", London is learning and promoting from its (former) colonies. Spence gutted @Sydney_Uni working conditions, and here is he gutting staff conditions @ucl. Solidarity with workers in the #HigherEd sector beholden to these types.

First scabbed module marks coming in and they are absolutely inconsistent as expected. Students: map your marks against former assessments, check your feedback against criteria and complain that there are irregularities in the assessment process - ie not marked by module tutor.
We absolutely must have an immediate Branch Delegate Meeting. If that means branches organising it themselves then we should do this. We cannot let management undermine national bargaining and the dispute as a whole by picking off individual (& stronger) branches

@UniversityLeeds A trusted source inside another area said they had never seen such disruption to marking and they find it hard to see how a single student will graduate from any of their programmes. They report the situation as "Completely F****d"
This is why we stick with MAB, or have a baked-in huge pay cut next year *not just this year*. The MAB is biting, university management are getting desperate. Staff, students & management at English universities will realise next week the scale of the disruption. Hold tight.
Well well well. It seems @sheffielduni contract a security company for a "weekly digest" of things they've spotted on social media that could be a threat to the institution, including students running for election for @SheffieldSU. Great work by @nowthenmag uncovering this.

BREAKING: we have found out that the University of Manchester is planning to offer a £500 voucher and a letter to future employers to any student who is unable to graduate due to the UCU's marking an assessment boycott
In 2021/22 we won on #casualisation banning zero hours contracts at #RCA creating Associate Lecturer roles. Now SMT are proposing an ideological restructure in the School of Design that means 19 fixed-term Associate Lecturers will not be renewed @defendthearts @ucu_solidarity
🚨 STRIKE ACTION 🚨 Today our five days of strike action begin. Today is also Newcastle University Open Day. We will be there picketing, leafletting, and ready to have conversations with prospective students and their families/guardians about how the uni REALLY treats staff.

BREAKING: At our AGM last week, members decided to consult our wider membership on taking strike action during Welcome Week and Week 1. If the dispute is not resolved by then, we will be left with no choice but to make the start of the year at @OfficialUoM very difficult.
Graduating is a privilege I never thought I’d be able to achieve and despite not graduating with a classification I was at least able to take a stand and protest the decisions the uni and UCEA have taken. Universities need to #settlethedispute and renegotiate with @ucu now.
Graduations going ahead without marks or degree transcripts with all the usual antiquated pomp and ceremony really is the most perfect distillation of the financialised university.
Completely unacceptable, stupid, doomed to fail. Solidarity with these two outstanding organisers and friends who have done so much for PGRs & brought them into the union. There can be no good reason to make them redundant against common sense & an almost unanimous Congress vote.
🚨BREAKING🚨 Redundancy notices have been served on two fixed-term #PGRsAsStaff Unite members. Their project was endorsed, extended & expanded at #ucucongress23 but the employer has refused to withdraw the redundancy notices despite repeated requests. 1/2 #NoRedundancies
Staff @QUBPsych protesting at being silenced, by being refused entry to the exam board that they co-constitute @ucuatqub Apparently differences of opinion constitutes ‘conflict of interest’ and will not be tolerated. Very disappointing, @QUBelfast
When I was censured by @ucu, the news went out to all members in the Friday email. Same for @DrJoGrady I would hope, or is democracy only for the little people.
@BrackleyJ @ucu Given your censure got sent to all UCU members, will Grady’s?
We particularly urge colleagues in more secure employment to vote to reject the proposals, in solidarity with those of us on casualised contracts. As the letter explains, the proposals as they stand are offensively insufficient on casualisation. Employers can and must do better.
My employer plans to deduct 26 days' pay for six days of strike. Let. That. Sink. In.
In another packed branch meeting, members overwhelmingly voted to take local strike action in response to management confirming they will deduct 26 days for the 6 days of strike in February. #ucuRISING
Shame on @covcampus hiring scabs in advance of a marking and assessment boycott. It is a loose labour market for early career academics, but if you take this or any posts like it this summer you are a scab and you are undermining your future profession : jobs.ac.uk/job/CYL944/aca…
Corona Contract @CoronaContract: Letter to HEC - Strike Escalate Win, 17 March docs.google.com/document/d/1us… 9/
This thread is spot on. And to me, this direction was very clearly signposted in the HEC briefing. I am sure those who voted 'no' to the offers going to consultation saw this as clearly as I did. I do not understand why this is controversial to say #ucuRISING
Open letter signed by me & other rank and file activists supporting the HEC decision and outlining why & providing a set of demands/next steps for the dispute. Pls read/sign/share! docs.google.com/forms/d/1dZymp…
UCU members - please have a read of this open letter calling for the union to return to proper decision making structures, and to reunify and organise for a marking and assessment boycott #ucuRISING forms.gle/zdykmGrbU8EsZu…
Solidarity with the bus drivers who roundly rejected an offer that wasn't good enough and are about to take indefinite action to get what's theirs.

the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor dust will devour--your capital. The less you are, the more you have; the less you express your own life, the greater is your alienated life--the greater is the store of your estranged being." 2/2
@ucu Just send it in an email for the love of god.
Whatever happens at the @ucu HEC now, Jo Grady has lost my confidence. I was not taking industrial action for five years, foregoing pay, paying union membership for this non-“offer” and being treated with disrespect and manipulation.
Well done to everyone on HEC today. Sounds like a v difficult meeting under huge pressure frm an increasingly authoritarian GS & bureacracy. Thank you for not being intimidated, for standing up for our disputes, & for making your own call. Solidarity✊ #ucurising
