Libraries. Punk. Malbec. Smiling.

Days 1 & 2 on the IC Picket line @sheffielducu (full squad rotation in operation)

Featuring the mash-up everyone wanted to see.. Firefighters and Librarians #UCUstrike

USS #pension deficit shrinks from £14bn to £1.6bn in two years as markets surge https://t.co/USzqs1zUtc

[SL McDonald @brawbukes]

Love @edrabinski acknowledging solidarity with union strikes in the opening of her keynote about power in the library. #JoinAUnion #lilac22

[UCU @ucu]

🚨‼️ BREAKING: USS trustees have confirmed that the basis for cuts has disappeared, as assets hit £88bn.

We need you to urgently:

❌ Lobby your VC to ask UUK to revoke the cuts: https://t.co/2MGgYnt2Oq

📝 Sign the emergency petition to the JNC chair: https://t.co/UOvsTctBRR

Library Staff still on #UCUstrike outside the IC - strategically making use of the roof @sheffielducu

[Kate Richardson @K_M_Richardson]

This applies to anyone in the USS pension scheme, including professional services staff. Currently I stand to lose 43%, cutting my projected annual income on retirement practically in half. I'm furious. And pretty upset. If you are too, join @ucu @sheffielducu and fight back ✊

We welcome all new joiners!

Here is a short video about why the strike action is happening: https://t.co/ajkcbssBFv

Back today (briefly it would seem) from #UCUstrike

It's about what you do, not what you say.

This applies to the jibber-jabber of university values statements

And every campus coffee shop radical who finds a 'plausible excuse'

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

Back to work after seven soggy #UCUstrike days, angrier than ever about #USSmess.

Huge thanks to everyone @sheffielducu @ucu working so hard for us all. 

If we're fighting for you too then join @ucu #OneOfUsAllOfUs #angrylibrarians

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

It's never been more important to ensure you have protection at work & that comes from being in a union. It's not just for you - it's how we will build a fairer economy for us all

#HeartUnions week 💚❤️💚

[Peter Barr @tweeterbarr]

We moved the position of the Library picket to the IC today. Unfortunately our employers aren't interested in changing their position...

@janepothecary Happy birthday to you!

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

@janepothecary Congratulations! Hope you're well :) x

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

So happy about this 😀https://t.co/N3HvAzffo7

Please, please support real bookshops over the next month, either chain or indie. This is a terrifying time to be closing our doors again when we’re normally gearing up for our busiest weeks of the year, and giving your money to A*azon is akin to signing our death warrant

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

@catcatcat84 Oh nooo....

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

@catcatcat84 Not as bad as being on the phone to them!

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

Where's my WiFi? Where's your customer service? #VirginMediaDown

[Amy C Haworth @amyccccccc]

So annoyed I forgot @virginmedia
