The results are in. Our branch voted YES for industrial action with 64% turnout and a 90% vote to strike. 📣📣�� If our pay doesn’t rise, we will! #StrongerTogether #EnoughIsEnough #OneOfUsAllOfUs

[University of Brighton UNISON @UniBtonUnison]

Solidarity with all those taking strike action over pay, today and over the summer. Our 2022-23 pay ballot resulted in a 82% YES vote on a 61% turnout - a magnificent result, which represents the strength of feeling that we can't accept massive pay cuts.

This week we launch a ballot of over 70,000 @UCU members across every university in the UK.

It’s the same story as elsewhere. Gross profiteering, suppressing workers pay, pension attacks and casualisation.

Our members are ready to fight.

RT if you stand with them.
