@wembleystadium Absolutely shocking working conditions for young temporary employees. No regard for ACAS guidelines. No EDI awareness. Daughter scolded for standing the wrong way after working for hours with no break in heat. Disgusting.

RIP what a hero, he did so much to raise public awareness of #MND

[MND Research @PremiumXRemark]

We are deeply saddened to hear of the death of Rob Burrow CBE.

The impact he had on raising awareness and supporting the fight against #MND will never be forgotten.

Our thoughts are with his friends, family and fans.

@ucl hello I’ve registered interest for an UG open day for my son. Haven’t received an email, has booking opened? Thanks

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@uniofwarwick Hello, are there still places available for the open day on 21/10? Thanks

@ucu @CambridgeUCU 2/2 What a fiasco for lecturers. Deducted pay, financial hardship & very little gained by the #MAB. Now lecturers have an enormous backlog of work to mark. They should feel angry. The strategy was ill conceived & the #MAB barely registered with the general public.

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@ucu @CambridgeUCU 1/2 Mixed feelings about this. Relieved that my daughter & 1000s of other students will get their exams marked & graduate. But there are no winners here. Huge amounts of anxiety for students, lost job & PG course offers & financial loss for international students.

[Sue murray @1suehm]

@ucu @Jeremy_Hunt where have you been in all the mab chaos?? My daughter (and 1000s of others from some of these top unis in the world @Cambridge_Uni) STILL has #nodegree - it is now September 😱

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@DSCoremans @ucu @CambridgeUCU @Cambridge_Uni @StrathclydeUCU If there was any real evidence that the #MAB will be effective I might think differently. A lot of disruption & distress for not much gain. A different approach is needed IMO or collective action on a mass scale which is unlikely to ever happen.

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@DSCoremans @ucu @CambridgeUCU @Cambridge_Uni I also support the @UCU & understand why the action has been taken but it is not fair or right that only some students are impacted so disproportionately. It is also not ok that students’ economic & professional futures are in jeopardy bc of lost job offers & training contracts

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@ucu @CambridgeUCU @Cambridge_Uni genuine question - what’s the intention? Continue the #MAB & keep using the same students with #nodegree as pawns? At the same time as countless other students move seamlessly from university to employment/HE.

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@ucu As a mum of a student with #nodegree here are my views on the #MAB
It is inequitable & has disproportionately affected only some students.
Students have lost job offers & PG course offers.
Students who paid 9k for their course fees have not graduated. #unethical

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@TheBabyExpert @Cinnnamon_tea @1suehm @ucu @alexander_mmd @LucieGrahamx @oiahe @StudentGrpClaim Which is why the effects of the #MAB are beginning to feel a little corrupt. My daughter is feeling helpless against big & powerful institutions. I do not believe for one moment that complaining will do her any favours. Her career choice is dependent on her degree result.

[Caroline Murphy @carmurp]

@TheBabyExpert @Cinnnamon_tea @1suehm @ucu @alexander_mmd @LucieGrahamx @oiahe @StudentGrpClaim The problem with ‘rocking the boat’ is that literally none of my daughter’s final exam papers or dissertation have been marked. Complaining = introducing bias to the marking? Understandably, my daughter is not prepared to be a subject in that particular experiment.

[Sue murray @1suehm]

We protested (& got drowned out by an organ to shut us up!) almost 2 mths on & still #nodegree for those unfortunate ones - not all students bc that would be fair and equitable - just some who are used as pawns as their lecturers believe deeply in improving conditions this way
