[Abertay UCU @UCUAbertay]

@StrathclydeUCU A clear trend!

[Abertay UCU @UCUAbertay]

@LJMUCU Thank you @LJMUCU, much appreciated!

[Abertay UCU @UCUAbertay]

Abertay's UCU has lodged a "failure to agree" notice with the University today over its refusal to respond to staff safety concerns about on-campus teaching @ucu @UCUScotland

Fantastic result @UCU_HWUBranch!

[UCU Scotland @UCUScotland]

UCU members at Heriot-Watt university overwhelmingly back strike action - 77% on a 66% turnout. Comment from UCU: "It’s not too late for the university to avoid strike action but they need to act now.” https://t.co/jG8L0SNDF8

[UCU Scotland President @UCUSPresident]

Great meeting of students and staff taking place now

“allowing the infection to circulate harmlessly among the young”

[Abertay UCU @UCUAbertay]

@manmetucu @ucu Done!

[Strathclyde UCU @StrathclydeUCU]

Excellent video which highlights why we ask you to #BoycottTheWatt

@HeriotWattUni have increased students, increased “profits”... yet they plan to cut 130 jobs.

[Abertay UCU @UCUAbertay]

@StrathclydeUCU @HeriotWattUni @UCU_HWUBranch We are going to discuss this too in our branch. @UCU_HWUBranch Happy to talk about situation there and discuss if there is anything we can do to help?

[Strathclyde UCU @StrathclydeUCU]

Strathclyde UCU AGM unanimously passed this motion yesterday following the threat by @HeriotWattUni towards our friends @UCU_HWUBranch.

We encourage all branches to consider the same step.

@chrismillard83 Good for you Chris! Really appreciate what you have done.

[Chris @chr1s_2_far]

I have written the following email to Sheffield's VC Koen Lamberts because quite frankly I do not know what else to do.

[Abertay UCU @UCUAbertay]

@StrathclydeUCU Michael Gove ; ) I wonder if Universities trialling herd immunity a bit ahead of the government?

[Strathclyde UCU @StrathclydeUCU]

So, who do you think will chair the inquiry when this is all over?
