“A complete disaster - not just for students and our members, but for the UK's independent rescarch capacity”

@DrJoGrady on new survey data showing universities cutting jobs at a scale not seen in years.

44% cutting courses. 31% cutting research.Two-thirds eyeing mergers.

600 jobs at risk at the University of Nottingham.

Nearly 2,700 staff have received at-risk letters this week.

This is devastating for our members, the university and the city.

“Asleep at the wheel.”

The government has sleepwalked into a higher education crisis that we have been warning about for years.

24 universities facing potential insolvency. Thousands of job losses. Course closures. Campuses sold off.

@DrJoGrady is calling for an emergency higher education taskforce so ministers directly intervene.

Solidarity with @WolvesUCU @UCU_Ulster @GoldsmithsUCU and all other branches recently informed they are facing huge job losses. As well as those with ongoing longer term plans for cuts.

[Heriot-Watt UCU @UCU_HWUBranch]

We are once again on strike.
We would rather not be. We would prefer @HeriotWattUni to remove the threat of compulsory redundancy.

We rarely use X now. Please look for us on 🦋 hwucu, and on the other places.

Staff at @UCUEssex are on strike from Thursday.

Management must rethink its decision to cuts jobs and close the Southend campus.

Join us on the picket lines and hear from @nowak_paul at Thursday's rally

Yesterday's branch newsletter. One of the ironies of British universities is that whilst they run mental health days, senior managers scheme to cut staff pensions.

VC loses confidence vote:

[UCU @ucu]

Essex students found out their campus was closing from a link in a WhatsApp chat.

800 students uprooted.
400 jobs cut.
One university in crisis.

Students and staff deserve better.
