“Two-tier” policing is not a myth. Like all the best conspiracy theories, it’s an upside-down truth. @chouliaraki_l and I write about policing myths and the tactical victimhood of the far-Right for @LSEpoliticsblog 👇
💥New! Rioters, far right activists, and Elon Musk, have been propagating the idea of “two-tier policing”. @chouliaraki_l and @kat_hig argue that this claim gets things backwards, and identify this as a communication strategy of reverse victimization. https://t.co/cic5fSghiE

If Goldsmiths - with a very strong & active union - can get away with sacking nearly 100 people for spurious financial reasons, then I shudder to think about what's next for other universities. Please send messages of support to @GoldsmithsUCU & donate to
gofundme.com
The GUCU Hardship Fund supports members currently undertaking a Marking and Asse… Ash Reid needs your support for HELP GOLDSMITHS UCU FIGHT MASS REDUNDANCIES!
