Dear @BBCNews, a deal has not been reached. A proposal for a rubbish deal is on the table. UCU members have become more determined than ever to reject it. Not 'lecturers'. It's all the staff your sons and daughters rely on in the library and other services too. #NoCapitulation

Pete from @LeedsUniHistory letting the Year 12 students visiting for Experience History Day know why History graduates are sought after by employers. Hoping we've inspired a few future Historians today! #history #historyteacher #outreachworks

@DrSKBarker @BBCNews @BBCRadio3 Thanks for pointing this out Sara. I work in widening participation here at Leeds and am affected by these changes too, but if you just read the media you would never know it. It is so disheartening that our futures are being forgotten in all this by many of the key players :-(

UoL Students! Want to work in widening participation and engage young people in HE? Our 12 month campus internship is now LIVE on the website https://t.co/lgrjqhEWe8 #LeedsIntern

Today we're welcoming Y12 from @EHCleeds, Ridgewood School, @qethelburgas, @Allerton_Grange & Wakefield Girls High with @UoLArtsOutreach for #ExcellenceHub Experience History at University!

[Lindsey Strachan @LindseyStrachan]

Looking forward to welcoming @EHCleeds @WGHS_TL @Allerton_Grange @qethelburgas & Ridgewood School to Year 12 Experience History Day at @LeedsUniHistory tomorrow. Lots of interesting workshops lined up for you & a campus tour (hopefully not in the rain!) #History #historyteacher

[Lindsey Strachan @LindseyStrachan]

@AdriaanvKlinken Agree totally but like almost every article I've seen, no mention of the non-academic (hate that term) staff like me also impacted by #USS. Not just academics on strike/who will lose out - our voice isn't being heard or our role acknowledged in the media. Its so disheartening.

I made a new sign for striking on International Women’s Day @leedsucu @UniversityLeeds

[Dan O'Neill @DrDanONeill]

Women have been undermined and betrayed by the leadership of @UniversityLeeds. Instead of accepting her Woman of Achievement Award from the university today, the fantastic @JKSteinberger speaks out for women at the @UCU strike on #IWD2018 https://t.co/sa6HXJkX7Y @leedsucu

[Lindsey Strachan @LindseyStrachan]

I will be writing to our VC to express my views on this and call for him to put an end to deductions for ASOS here at Leeds #ucustrike @leedsucu
