After 100+ redundancies in 2023, the VC @uniofbrighton used her first email of 2024 to announce:
👋Voluntary severance scheme
💀Plan to remove all entitlement to research time from academics
🛑Plan to remove the weekly cap on teaching hours
Haven't they caused enough damage?!
I would sincerely like to say soz 2 my institution. Been told this tweet a) brings UoB into disrepute, b) reveals confidential info (sent via all school email), c) is considered discriminatory, bullying, and harassment.
I understand this is the concern. NOT me feeling depressed
@SeanAWallis I didn’t even say Tory views are bad….just that trying to minimise Humanities and Social Sciences funding was out of the Tory handbook, which is simply an observation.
It will be deleted by 19/2/24 to avoid a disciplinary. I need to stress that I 100% do not feel directly victimised by the management at UoB and feel grateful for their upstanding treatment of me. Every single day I walk onto campus is like walking through the gates of heaven.
@DrJoGrady Hi Jo, not sure if you’re aware, we at Brighton largely feel like you’ve failed us. We lost our dispute, we were thrown under the bus for the MAB (which we’re still being deducted for) by you and UCU leadership, and we have a no confidence motion in you. Aberdeen deserve better
I mean - yeah the anti-union laws do pose significant barriers, but we’ve also not met the threshold cause the leadership of this union is just utter shite.
NEW: Anti-union laws stop UCU members from taking strike action.
Our ballot results show UCU members want to strike for better pay & conditions.
But anti-democratic laws that single unions out for special treatment have blocked us from taking action.

@ucu are supporting me with £150, whilst simultaneously deducting £49.23 from my acc, for 30 days of MAB deductions. I really do feel @DrJoGrady and UCU leadership just don’t care about winning disputes. They just want the profile and campaign resources. This union is a joke
Gaza is under intense bombing.
Telecommunications have been cut.
We can't get through to our family who have been trapped in this war zone for almost 3 weeks.
We can only pray they survive the night.
How many more children have to die before the world says enough?
