Glad to join an interactive workshop re sexual violence towards minoritised students in universities led by Prof Catherine Donovan @KateButterby with an engaged group of students with fantastic recommendations! Hopeful these will be taken forward by @durham_uni senior leaders!
A short thread about academia. I’ve been on the receiving end of fixed term contracts. The regular off you pop notices. 15 years of precariousness at Oxford University. #UCUrising 1.
CAN ALL UCU MEMBERS PLEASE RT THIS THREAD.
As members and branches discuss potential action in the #ucuRISING dispute, I wanted to let you know we have been working on phase 2 of the campaign.
Today is #WorldDayfortheEndofSpeciesism ❤🙏 Speciesism is the belief that one species is more important – & more deserving of care, dignity, & life itself – than another. Huge suffering arises out of it. At FARS, our animals are our equals & their lives just as precious 🐖🐑🐔🥰
Many of us working as researchers in @DurhamSociology have written a letter to our vice-chancellor about the #UCUStrike, because so many issues the industrial action is about disproportionately affect research staff, and are exacerbating social inequities in higher education.
Most guys don’t look in the mirror & see a problem. But it’s staring us in the face. Sexual violence begins long before you think it does. #DontBeThatGuy
Day 4 and over 60 miles run. Our feet are pretty sore and @KateButterby has both knees strapped up but we were spurred on by hearing the peregrine falcons screeching in the glens, by gorgeous weather & by views to die for. Best of all, we are now over £1000 for @Willowsanimals 🥳
51 miles in and we are starting to feel it! Thankfully a much needed stretch was had on a helpful post as we made it to Craigellachie. £840 raised so far and we are dreaming big! Can we make it to £1000 for @Willowsanimals 🐐 🐑 🐈⬛ 🐄 🐓 🦆
Boris Johnson's Government is thinking of approving a massive new oil field on the eve of UN climate talks #COP26
The climate impacts of the Cambo field are devastating.

So I’m not getting a vaccine next week - was feeling weird about why I’d been selected ahead of others so rang GP to check. Turns out they had my height as 6.2cm rather than 6 ft 2, giving me a BMI of 28,000 😂
The queen of crime @valmcdermid has a new book out - always something to look forward to. The front cover is a thing of beauty - and I have no doubt the content will be 👌 too.
