Don't cross the picket line! #UCURising #UCUStrike
The latest "offer" from ucea is not an offer but a re-statement of what we already have. The rest of the "offer" from uuk is equally meaningless and @ucu 's recommendation to accept is nothing short of a betrayal of the membership who deserve better.
Vote NO in the e-ballot

Utterly dismayed at @ucu and the latest “offer”. It simply isn’t good enough, and don’t even get me started on the wording of the question we’re being asked to vote on. Total shambles #UCUrising #UCUstrike

Solidarity with all striking workers this week ✊
If you are inconvenienced by industrial action, remember to blame the bosses not the workers. If people had proper pay and working conditions there wouldn’t be a need to strike in the first place.

The government getting Gary Lineker fired for saying that a minister’s language is reminiscent of 1930’s Germany is reminiscent of 1930’s Germany.

The British establishment pandering to Fascists is not a recent event starting with the BBC and Brexit, Gary Lineker and David Attenborough.
Stan Cullis is a unrecognised hero.

Once a Gov’t is committed to the principle of silencing critical voices, it has only one way to go…down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens.
BBC is pandering to right wing authoritarianism.

Yeah, that just about sums it up.
I’m struggling to think what the connection could possibly be between all those other people that doesn’t apply to Lineker. 🤔
