“Goldsmiths needs to build on its strengths not cut itself off at the knees”

We couldn’t agree more! Powerful words of solidarity against these senseless cuts from openDemocracy co-founder @AnthonyBarnett 💪

#NotADoneDeal @GoldsmithsUoL

[Goldsmiths UCU @GoldsmithsUCU]

Current plans to reduce staffing in the historic @SociologyGold by as much as *HALF* risk “reducing it to a corpse fit only for autopsy.”

Damning words of solidarity from Professor Les Back @AcademicDiary 🙏

[Goldsmiths UCU @GoldsmithsUCU]

Goldsmiths’ managers are counting on our fatigue and our apathy.
But no such luck — the sunshine is on our side and we’ll be here as long as it takes! #NotADoneDeal

[Queen Mary UCU @qm_ucu]

sending so much solidarity to @goldsmithsucu! You're defending and fostering what Goldsmiths is, and something which your management should help in taking care of, not destroy.

[Goldsmiths UCU @GoldsmithsUCU]

📣 Students don’t come to @GoldsmithsUoL to become robots.

Nor accountants.

Nor management consultants.

They come to learn, to think, to fight.

Listen to @MichaelRosenYes - he knows the score ⬇️

Staff at @GoldsmithsUoL are 🚫ON STRIKE🚫 from next week!

Join us on campus for a 💪SOLIDARITY RALLY💪 on Tuesday 18/06 at 12pm & remind Goldsmiths' managers that there is NO Goldsmiths without its WORKERS.

These cuts are #NotADoneDeal! We know it, and so do they.

[Moss Freed @mossfreed]

I am one of *at least* 133 academics in scope for redundancy @GoldsmithsUoL. We need to fight for this wonderful institution and for Arts & Humanities education & research. Council, you can stop this, it’s #NotADoneDeal @GoldsmithsUCU

The institutional violence inflicted AGAIN by @GoldsmithsUoL on staff from 11/19 depts inc my own, @SociologyGold, is highly discriminatory esp towards women from marginalised groups: 54.9% BAME women & 47.8% BAME men are in the pool for redundancy @GoldsmithsUCU

[Harry Dyer @HarryTDyer]

Goldsmiths is a vibrant hub of brilliant scholars. I am always in awe of the thoughtful & exciting work that comes out of an institution that still shines, despite all that the leadership has done to tarnish it. The staff are what's great about Goldsmiths, & it is #notadonedeal

[Träger Warning 🇵🇸🇸🇩 ☭ @CleanersFor]

In the infinite revolving door of hack managers devastating the fabric of @GoldsmithsUoL the latest cast of clowns are pursuing layoffs on an industrial scale: 130+ roles across 11 depts. @goldsmithsucu are fighting back.

Show your support for the comrades!

#NotADoneDeal

[Arbeitology @Arbeitologist]

As an alumni of @GoldsmithsUoL I’m utterly appalled at their managements decision to slash the jobs and destroy the livelihoods of so many colleagues and destroy what’s left of a wonderful arts and humanities school. @GoldsmithsUCU

#NotaDoneDeal

[Dr. Ray Campbell @RayCampbell19]

The Transformation Agenda, as Goldsmiths smt call it, is an attack on the arts and humanities at @GoldsmithsUoL Call it what it is: a cuts agenda. @GoldsmithsUCU #NotADoneDeal @ucu

[UCU @ucu]

🚨STRIKE🚨

If @sheffhallamuni management do not stop the planned jobs cuts, they will face strike action

We will not stand by while management tears teaching, research and academic standards to shreds

A beautiful sight on New Cross Road - why do @GoldsmithsUoL senior management team keep running away from meetings? A sorry state of affairs when you are terrified of being accountable to the staff and students of the University you are stewarding. #NotaDoneDeal @GoldsmithsUCU

[Goldsmiths UCU @GoldsmithsUCU]

📢 Massive thanks to the legendary Professor Paul Gilroy @bungatuffie for his solidarity:
"The butchering of @GoldsmithsUoL by inept management and cack-handed consultants provides a dismal example of the deterioration of UK Higher Education."

Incredibly important letter from our colleagues in Gaza

“We built these universities from tents. And from tents, with the support of our friends, we will rebuild them once again” ✊🇵🇸

[UCU Solidarity Movement @ucu_solidarity]

Defend the arts and humanities - no to redundancies at @GoldsmithsUoL #NotADoneDeal

[Dr Fauzia Ahmad @brisofa]

It's not us, as academic staff @GoldsmithsUoL who should be pleading for our jobs in another disastrous restructure that makes no sense & will result in over 132 of us lose our jobs. It is SMT who should be pleading for their jobs instead
