This week we had to sign our contracts or lose our jobs during a cost of living crisis...but we are determined and continue our fight. #nofireandrehire
What an amazing day for our young people from Rainbow Collective Animation Club in #Peckham! Thank you @intofilm_edu and a huge thank you to all of you who voted for them and their film ‘Samosa In Space’. Much love to you all, from all the students at the animation club ❤️💚❤️
Victory to * * @UCU_RuTC ** in their recently announced 14 day strike action! We (@UCUrichmond ) are against #fireandrehire at Richmond upon Thames College and send huge solidarity to our neighbours 🥊💜
Our incredible members at @UCU_RuTC do not take #FireAndRehire threats lying down. These plans are both brutal and unnecessary, unforgivable. College management needs to start doing their job and actually engage properly with @UCU.
Thanks for tremendous solidarity to all who came and all who've shared and tweeted. We are resilient and resourceful and we are @UCU_RuTC! We keep fighting ✊😁
Staff and students were out in force at yesterday's rally against plans by @RuT_College to fire and rehire 127 members of teaching staff 📢
UCU members have voted to take 14 days strike action in August and September unless management think again ✊
#RichmondFireAndRehire
"The announcement of further strike action shows staff are going absolutely nowhere" @UCU_RuTC
Management at @RuT_College must withdraw their fire and rehire plans or face 14 days of strikes over the summer

“There’s a deep structural imbalance of power and wealth in this country.
“There’s always another crisis and it’s always workers who pay the price. People have had enough.”

Yep - because @RMTunion have an algorithm that magically lowers students’ grades by 40%. Typical ridiculous anti-union coverage from a paper that depends on the tubes running for its circulation at stations
🚨NEW: Two more days of strikes at Richmond upon Thames College over Fire & Rehire
The strikes, called for 21 & 28 June, will hit college open days
Management needs to withdraw its Fire & Rehire threat to halt any further disruption

The whole trade union movement will need to get behind railway workers in their campaign for a good pay rise, job security and a safe network for all who use it. 🛤🚄✊🚞
After taking five consecutive days of strike action, staff at Richmond upon Thames College have just voted unanimously to escalate the dispute
Management needs to lift the Fire & Rehire threat immediately, or face further disruption
