Staff at Solent University are striking all week for a pay rise that keeps up with inflation. π With the cost-of-living crisis and increased bills, they can't afford to live on current wages. Pay in higher education has dropped 25% in real terms over 14 years. #Strike#FairPay
Today marks 15 years since an immigration raid sprung on SOAS staff was carried out. We say NEVER AGAIN to university collusion in racist raids! Join the commemoration so SOAS never forgets ...
@SOASJ4C Commemorates the 15th anniversary of SOAS' sordid collusion in an immigration raid; a historic low in the mismanagement of SOAS, but one that prompted 15 years of solidarity and collective fight on behalf of the lowest paid workers to expose racist raids and win change!
Strike dates reminder! This week's strike dates: Weds24th-Friday 26th. It's so important that we are all out in force on the picket lines this week, showing the University we won't be beaten! Can't wait to see you all there, whistles at the ready! [img: graphic with strike dates]
The Rwanda Bill is a disgusting piece of legislation designed to demonise the world's most vulnerable people.
This government has done everything it can to make the lives of refugees even harder.
What a sorry and shameful legacy to leave behind.
