Wearing sashes that say hands off our tutors & shouting 'no cuts, pay your staff' @uniofbrighton students showed their solidarity with us at graduation! They hold senior managers in contempt for the attacks on staff. Together we'll win #SaveBrightonUni #brightonforever #ucuRISING

[Brighton UCU @BrightonUCU]

Our VC was too scared to face @uniofbrighton students at graduation so she sent failed Tory councilor @ProfRJaspal in her place. Our students had a message for him: PAY YOUR STAFF! They know we need zero deductions & zero redundancies! #SaveBrightonUni #brightonforever #ucurising

[Sussex UCU @sussexucu]

Seeing students continue to stand in solidarity with us is so touching ❤️

Taking action is always a last resort. We've been telling our employers about the crisis in higher education for years now.

It's on @UCEA1 to settle this dispute round the negotiating table. #ucuRISING

[Brighton UCU @BrightonUCU]

We let everyone at today's open day know @uniofbrighton has been shut down! The academic year will not start until there are zero deductions & zero redundancies! Students deserve better than made up grades. No mickey mouse degrees! #savebrightonuni

🪧Demo in front of Checkland Building🪧
⏰15 June 8.30am⏰
Academic board @uniofbrighton grow a spine! Insist on discussing the effects of mass redundancies on students & the cheapening of degrees by dropping academic standards. The gagging of members must stop! #savebrightonuni

Another win for students and staff at Brighton ! @TECHNEDTP have postponed their Summer Congress which was due to be held at Brighton Uni during strike days. We refuse to cross pickets in solidarity with those facing redundancies ❤️

PGRs preparing for another meeting with University management tomorrow. If you want a little bit of fun , make yourself a “management speak” bingo card and we can play a game tomorrow.

Great video of Saturday’s March. Gutted I couldn’t be there.

@Kiaod @uniofbrighton It been years, right?

[Lorenza Ippolito @Lip79]

@Kiaod @uniofbrighton This is really devastating and another example of @uniofbrighton lies. Of course 110 redundancies will effect everyone. I hope you can have your viva soon and with the examiners you want and deserve.

Last time I met @debrahumphris I brandished this placard to support the strikes...

...what shall I change it to for the #SaveBrightonUni protest on sat? Any ideas? @BrightonUCU @pgrs_brighton

After Brighton University bosses announced cuts, closures, and redundancies, students took action - but it wasn't plain sailing

As PGR’s we refuse to be complicit in the destruction of our academic home! We stand in solidarity with all staff and condemn these brutal cuts @BrightonUCU @SUBrighton @brightonexiles @ucu

[UOB @UOBSolidarity]

an update on the occupiers for you all! we are so proud of them and wish to convey our gratitude to this group. it is disgusting the way they have been treated and no one has had any response from UoB! ‼️

[PGRs Brighton @pgrs_brighton]

Meanwhile, outside Grand Parade earlier this evening...

Such a shame we can't tag Debs - I think Arts &Humanities Student Resistance captured her best side!
