@cardiffuni boss Colin Riordan gets £340,000, a house, healthcare, + use of a car.
His most casual workers aren’t even on contracts.
He leaves this year & his goodbye gift to is a 50-100% pay cut for legal industrial action.
Let him know what you think.

QMUL students - don’t stand for this devaluation of your degrees. Write to your ‘Prinicipal’. #HelloColin
BREAKING: We have learned that @QMUL management is considering using external staff from Curio, an Australian Higher Education consultancy @curio_group, to try to break our marking boycott and grade student essays. A 🧵 on #TheCuriosCase: 1/13
It was great fun filming this bad boy. Loved channeling my inner workman. 🔧
At 8am today, our Vice Chancellor ‘earned’ in a few days, the same amount as @cardiffuni ‘s lowest paid staff earn in a year 😱😱😱
What are our members doing to celebrate @cardiffuni #FatCatDay?

Maybe @cardiffuni feels like backing up the many messages of thanks to staff contending with new realities with some actual good-will action like other unis are doing? #hereshoping #hellocolin #ucustrikeback
St Andrews University won't be deducting pay from the strike "for the foreseeable future" due to #COVID19. Will @durham_uni and other unis follow their example? RT!

@CardiffUCU
Our last day picketing the HEB this week with donuts, #intimidatingbunting #genderpaygapumbrella and a poll on how @cardiffuni should spend money saved from striking staff wages. No one has voted for Colin’s bonus or new buildings so far! #HelloColin #UCUstrikesback @CardiffUCU
Part of holding those in power to account is recognising when they do things that are good progress - we’re pleased that @cardiffuni took initiative in moving our meeting with VC Colin this morning so it’s not behind a picket line. Great show of good faith! #hellocolin
We’re striking today at the HEB @CardiffUCU Come vote on why you think @cardiffuni has a 21.6% gender pay gap! #hellocolin #UCUstrikesback #ucustrikes #genderpaygap #IWD2020
This is HUGE - casualisation is a stain on the sector and hugely damaging to university management #ucustrikesback
#hellocolin - we may be precarious but you can’t just ignore us and hope that we go away, you and other university leaders need to FIX THIS!
@CardiffUCU
@CardiffUCU @cardiffuni #HelloColin. Will you listen to staff, students and the coroner's report? Will you look at staff wellbeing and #WorkOverload in your institution.
*Amazing* solidarity from students on our pickets this morning!
#HelloColin, you lost the staff’s trust & confidence a long time ago.
You’re losing the students, too.
Hint: Instruct the employer organisations to make us an offer, before @cardiffuni becomes unmanageable.
Skaters supporting the strike! @CardiffUCU
@CardiffUCU Thanks! Not sure what Colin thought about it when we showed it to him this morning though ❄❄❄#HelloColin #WeFoundColin
After this👆, Prof Riordan...
You *know* your staff have utterly lost confidence in your leadership.
Time to listen & instruct the employers to make sensible, long-term offer.
Our demands are not radical.
Give a little, win back our trust.
#HelloColin #UCUstrikesback #UCUstrikes
But now we know.
The @cardiffuni VC, who:
-earns £250,000+ p/a;
-whose 2018 *bonus* was £46,000;
-who’s got the Uni into oodles of debt;
-who‘s happy to splash cash on shiny new buildings
... is *also* happier to see his staff shiver on the pickets than compromise.😡
#HelloColin
We can see why @cardiffuni might have U-turned on making this info public.
These “hardball” negotiating tactics are not a good look when hard-pressed, striking staff are losing pay.
Especially when some VCs are now breaking ranks & backing @UCU.
#HelloColin #awkward
Pickets strong again @cardiffuni on #Day6 of the #UCUstrikes.
We’re close a deal & one of our members just celebrated their birthday on the pickets!
Happy birthday Iñaki!
#HelloColin, will you give us the best pressie ever & instruct UUK & UCEA to make an offer?
