LSE Branch of @Liberatetheuni | Demarketise. Decolonise. Democratise.

[Cambridge Palestine Solidarity Society (PalSoc) @cupalsoc]

We are appalled and shocked at @cambridgeunion's decision to invite Tzipi Hotovely to give a monologue on Tuesday 8th February, and legitimise her extreme racist ideology. In response, we have co-written an open letter condemning the Cambridge Union: https://t.co/uAmjmLVDuY. 1/4

🚨 SOLIDARITY ASSEMBLY IN SUPPORT OF STUDENTS FROM @LSEforPalestine AND THE LSE PALESTINE SOCIETY 🚨

Thursday, 18 November, 12 noon, in front of LSE Library👇 co-organised by LSE staff and Decolonising LSE

[Liberate the University 🟥 @Liberatetheuni]

Come and support @LSEforPalestine and the LSE Palestine Society and show your solidarity for protesters targeted following the Hovetely rally on Tuesday🇰🇼✊🟥

[LSE Liberate the University 🟥 @LSELtU]

Rally today at LSE⬇️⬇️

[LSE for Palestine @LSEforPalestine]

🚨URGENT CALL FOR ACTION🚨

Since the Debate Society and SU are going through with platforming Tzipi Hotovely, an avowed anti Palestinian racist and islamophobe, we will be protesting.

Let’s make noise to disrupt this event! BRINGS POTS, PANS, FLAGS AND SIGNS!

[LSE Liberate the University 🟥 @LSELtU]

Another unbelievable mandate for strike action over the four fights, amazing!!✊

[LSE UCU @LSE_UCU]

The four fights (pay, equality, precarity, workload) dispute result is out. At LSE:

Turnout: 57.1% (higher than for USS)

For strike: 84.6%

For action short of a strike: 93.2%

Another startling result. Huge mandates for these fights as much as for pensions. Enough is enough.

[LSE Liberate the University 🟥 @LSELtU]

Now it's time for @lsesu to come out in full solidarity with our exploited staff. The marketised system of HE that has pushed them to the brink is responsible for our fees, course cuts, and the exploitation of international students - students and staff have to stand together!✊

[LSE Liberate the University 🟥 @LSELtU]

Absolutely incredible result from @LSE_UCU - we are fully behind you and will do everything we can to support you! Solidarity from students we love you❤️✊✊🟥

[LSE UCU @LSE_UCU]

The USS dispute results are in.

Turnout: 55.1%

For strike action: 89.1%

For action short of a strike: 95.5%

A huge local result, strengthening our LSE branch in all matters.

Thank you for voting. We await the decisions of the Higher Education Committee on what comes next.

@LSE_UCU We would love to support the strike in any way we can to show students are right behind staff, how can we help!

[Liberate the University 🟥 @Liberatetheuni]

.@TheUnionUCL's position on the @UCL_UCU strike ballot is a DISGRACE - every UCL sabb who voted in favour should be ashamed. Most students spoke in favour of UCU support but were ignored. Students and staff must stand in solidarity against marketisation and management cuts!

[Liberate the University 🟥 @Liberatetheuni]

Massive solidarity with every @ucu member voting for strike action.

Marketised HE affects all of us - staff and students alike - and this brutal cost-cutting benefits no one except uni managements and their fat cat salaries.

Students are right behind you!✊🟥

SURPRISE!! @LSEnews with investment links to the arms trade! Who would have guessed🙃🙃

Take part in the #CheveningCorrupt Twitter storm and demand that the families of the Afghan awardees are allowed into the UK!

[Liberate the University 🟥 @Liberatetheuni]

We’ll believe @BorisJohnson promises to bring Afghan @CheveningFCDO students to the UK when it happens. Until then, Afghan students should be allowed to bring their families to the UK. Leaving the students & their families to the Taliban would only mean death. #CheveningCorrupt

[UoL Intercollegiate RENT STRIKE🟥 @RentStrikeUoL]

UPDATE: The UoL Rent Strike is withholding £725,049.29 in rent, with 237 of us still holding out!! (FOI Request)

This is far higher than we initially thought, with the sign up sheet turning out to be a huge underestimate✊🔥
