Cardiff Uni Kazakhstan has long been a major worry for us and just keeps getting worse: "People are really concerned that our executives are gambling on a half-cooked CUK while halfway through a chaotic restructuring and teaching crisis back at home” https://t.co/lLbCk9HrTA

🤩The whole movement is with us👇 🗳️Ballot opens next week... 📨Get ready to vote YES✊ #WeAreTheUniversity

Where is the money? @qmul haven't paid many cleaners their overtime since August; unions haven’t had their Facilities Time paid since August; many Teaching Associates & Teaching Fellows have not had any pay in September. All since the new financial year.

Big up our friends in Leicester! Standing strong against management incompetence and short-sightedness. Redundancies are unnecessary and just fiddling while Rome burns - we need fundamental change in the funding system! All power to @leicesterucu ✊

University lecturers condemn new campus in Kazakhstan https://t.co/G5aTmMQ74w

Me on BBC Wales Today for @CardiffUCU about concerns over the Cardiff University Kazakhstan (CUK) campus. Full piece available here: https://t.co/LvdI7k3CM9

We're concerned about the speed & lack of due diligence re the campus in Astana. No transparency, no idea where the money is going or coming from. TNE properly planned can be great for students & staff but this sets a deeply problematic precedent. https://t.co/4bQh032I4L

Don't be this guy. Cardiff UCU members, get your indicative ballot in TODAY. Look for an email from yoursay@ucu.ac.uk

"It is shameful and bad practice leaving so many people at risk for so long" https://t.co/IEUWloYre0 🚨UCU members: Get that vote in by tomorrow (Friday). No more can we stand this unnecessary cruelty after the hell of the last 10 months. An injury to one is an injury to all 🚨

Another member of the academic staff told us: “After the chaos of this last year, we all now know that the university management has a tech-bro ‘move fast and break things’ approach. Well they’ve definitely broken the timetabling system"

“They like to think of themselves as ‘disruptive innovators’ like that’s a good thing, but this is yet another major management fuck up that’s all disruption and no innovation.” https://t.co/QxmfwbVclp

Eat all the pizza! Then go and submit your indicative ballot for industrial action anyway 😎 Ballot closes on 3rd October. The link is in an email from yoursay@ucu.ac.uk

"Wendy Larner, the Vice Chancellor, was criticised over a similar restructuring exercise at the university she ran in New Zealand.” VCs and Senior Leaders permitted to repeatedly wreck institutions with impunity, because they are never held to account 🤬😡🤬😡

this is what you get when you outsource every core activity of your institution AND if the sector ensures you're reliant on the volatility of student fee income that isn't clear until late August. Our timetabling struggles with courses that have doubled the number of students

As ever, it’ll be frontline staff who’ll have to deal with the fallout from this management-induced chaos. An appeal to students: please go easy on lecturers and professional services staff. We agree this is awful, but as this news piece makes clear, we’re as in the dark as you!

Timetabling chaos at Cardiff University as new term looms https://t.co/69FyRkmXTs

Huge support for our friends at @bangorucu - there is a growing crisis in Welsh higher education and rather than finding sustainable solutions, our 'leaders' are deepening it. https://t.co/yijUDAKD0m
