@adamtickell @SussexUni A bold message from the UKHE-Man! We at @FUCUniversity stand alongside you, ready to battle the Skeletor-like Sally Hunt and her financial imprudence!
We commissioned a survey of 500 of our most loyal students, to ask for their opinion on the #ucustrikes. The results speak for themselves. Take note @UCU
9. Fulwich University College University recognises that staff have a right to industrial action. However, I want to reassure you, my beloved students, that we will make every possible effort to minimise the impact of this evil, work-shy, Bolshevik terrorism!"
8. We must all make sacrifices for the common good. For example, I myself have suffered a mere 45% annual increase in my own pension. I urge you all to stand together and embrace the sledgehammer-blow of change!
6. My message to striking staff is simple: let me help you help yourselves! Do I not always have your best interest in mind? You should be happy to work beneath such a diligent VC. Is this not worth a thousand pension increases?
4. UCU’s demands are simply not sustainable. It is often said that a university is only as good as its buildings. Without pension readjustments, how could we afford the brand new, underground T. Lysenko Biotech Hub? Or the high-tech, bookless, St Philomena Library?
3. I have spent many sleepless nights agonising over how I could explain to my poor, misguided staff that the proposed changes to their pensions are entirely for their benefit. More than two meetings were held to seek a resolution.
2. UCU has called this action in response to proposed changes to the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) pensions. I would like to reassure students that I am working night and day to resolve this dispute, resting only twice per hour to replenish my port.
1. FUCU Vice Chancellor Figgy Markovic has an important message for staff and students:
"As you are no doubt aware, the College has been notified by UCU of a vote in favour of strike action.
