[Birkbeck UCU @BirkbeckUCU]

Today committee voted to seek @ucu permission to ballot members for local strike action over compulsory redundancies that remain on the table. We can't stand for the heavy-handed intimidatory tactics of @BirkbeckUoL pushing colleagues into 'voluntary' severance. #UCUrising

[Nicola Pratt @ncpratt]

Solidarity with colleagues at Birkbeck facing compulsory redundancy. The UK HE sector is completely disfuctional. You and your students deserve better. @BirkbeckUoL @BirkbeckUCU

Flexible, adaptable, agile. This is the language of job cuts and race-to-the-bottom short term contracts.

It's very familiar.

A new 📩message arrives from above: 4 of us need to resign, die or get sacked. Other departments are receiving their equivalents. So, we are at the depressing endgame that @BirkbeckUoL SMT have engineered. Awful.

Well said! "We strongly believe, Birkbeck will benefit more from a longer-term strategy based on its existing strength – academic excellence and its distinct brand" 👏👏👏👏 #SaveBirkbeck @BBKFMACSResists @SaveBirkbeck @savebbkgeo @SOSBBKPsySoc

This picture shows so much. It’s a decade of friendship that has resulted in 5 BAs, 5 MAs, a PhD, a partial PhD, 3 potential PhDs - all at BBK. For varied reasons we all needed a chance and BBK gave it to us. BBK is the people in this picture and those who aren’t. #SaveBirkbeck

@GraceHalden Sad to read this. It's a travesty that Birkbeck is treating staff in this callous way while continuing to invest in expensive buildings and white elephant projects. Heartfelt solidarity to you and to all @savebbkgeo @BirkbeckUCU @SaveBirkbeck

@ucuwestminster thanks comrades!
