The horror is indeed absurd pay offers and ongoing redundancies. This is your chance to vote back. Vote YES!
As #halloween approaches #UWL members should remember that the real #horror is a ridiculous 1.4 per cent pay rise and over a decade of devastating real term pay cuts. You have a ballot, vote as soon as possible @ucu @UCULondon #WeAreTheUniversity

Yesterday and today, UCU and @unitetheunion members at Imperial College were on strike over poverty pay and impossible workloads. A 2% pay offer while sitting on £2bn in reserves. Pay down 9% since 2018. This is exactly why we ballot. #WeAreTheUniversity #UCU

We’re into week two of the ballot, time to get back to basics. Why vote? Because your voice is the only way to change what’s happening in our sector: 📉 Falling pay ⚠️ Rising insecurity 💬 Broken national agreements Every vote counts. Every conversation matters. Vote YES. Post

This international student levy will only deepen the hole in universities’ budgets. A burning hole created by years of underfunding and neglect. Staff and students will be the ones paying the price. This is why we ballot. https://t.co/eEU4NIU2fs
