Since fees were trebled in 2009 (making Britain the world’s most expensive public universities) academic’s wages fell 20% (now the lowest paid in English speaking world), university chancellors pay went up 3.5% per annum to over £300k - 6.5x an average lecturers salary #UCUstrike

Just heard someone walking down the street with a trolley. I realized it became a very unusual sound and it triggered all sorts of memories.

"si approfondirà il ruolo della donna [...] a partire dalle compositrici che hanno lasciato un segno nella storia". Ma di compositrici nella stagione non c'è quasi traccia e il M° Mimma Campanale non è comunque invitata in stagione a fare il proprio lavoro @TeatroVerdiPN

Troppo spesso, negli ultimi anni, ho visto persone istruite, inclusi intellettuali di professione, mentire e mentirsi spudoratamente per trovare nobili pretesti al più gretto egoismo di classe. 1/3
