Can’t get me head round the fact my first job I worked for £4.05 an hour 🤭 the manager asked me to put my ciggie out once and come off me break, said if I don’t he’ll take half an hour pay off me an I said that’s sweet it’s 2 quid I’ll finish me biffter 🤣
I’ve had almost 10 months to write my dissertation, yet here I am 3 days before it’s due, frantically typing because I started it 4 days ago. Just sums me up really
@EmmLuxton I think it’s important to get though that racism is more than ‘I don’t like brown people’ or shouting racially derogatory things at people in the street. Systematic racism is real and anyone who doesn’t criticise and challenge it actively contributes to it x
@savannahdalee Also lots of middle aged white people stating that they don’t think racism is an issue in the U.K./ Plymouth because they’ve never experienced it 🌝
@ThangamMP from a fellow third year student nurse at UWE Bristol. We’re being told to stay on placment (for free) in dangerous situations - many in Covid wards. Whilst most other student across the country are at least being financially compensated as band 3/4 please help us.
@nas18835071 @ThangamMP I appreciate that but we’ve exhausted all of the relevant sources to try and get some info. We’re repeatedly being told to hang on for more update whilst having to stay out working for free. Whilst many unis have regularly updated their students and students have contracts signed
@nas18835071 @ThangamMP Placement isn’t optional, if we don’t go into placement now we have to make it up later and won’t qualify with our cohort. Yes you ‘opt in’ to the paid placement, many of us have but we’re still out on placement for free until such a time that they decide to start paying us
@VCUWE @Tzardan @ThangamMP But they aren’t the ones who are risking theirs health and safety, and the health and safety of their loved ones for free. And seeing thousands of other students across the country being paid for it.
@VCUWE @Tzardan @ThangamMP With all due respect, all we are getting in response from module and program leads is to ‘wait for further info’ or that they’re going to collate our questions into FAQ and won’t be answering individual questions.
