NEW! Does the decision to close @UniShefArch make financial sense? Not on UEB’s figures.
Read how details unearthed by an FoI request show that keeping Archaeology open makes @SheffieldUni £1.6m better off over the next 5 years. #SaveSheffieldArchaeology

[Bournemouth Uni UCU @UCUBU]

Please show support for @ULivUCU2, join the rally if you can, ⬇️ 45 people have not been made compulsorily redundant. 45. With just 2 left, this can only be an ideological stand by @LivUni who should know that @UCU will not settle for less than #FightForHealthJobs #UCUFightBack

[Leeds University UCU @leedsucu]

Solidarity with members of @ULivUCU2 striking for ten days because University of Liverpool @LivUni management think staff are resources to be made redundant when it's convenient for them, not people in a big community whose jobs can and should be protected. #FightForHealthJobs

[NoRedundanciesChester @NoRedundancies]

✨What a FANTASTIC day! ✨

Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who supported us, both in person and online. The solidarity was palpable!

With special thanks to all the speakers, especially @DrJoGrady @NigelUNI @hankmagrait @EMMAREES @profstevewilko and the wonderful @pcssambaband 👏

[profstevewilko @profstevewilko]

We made some serious noise today at the UCU rally to Reclaim our University. There was solidarity from Liverpool. Although I think the dinosaur might have scared off the lion!

Solidarity with @leicesterucu and all those who are threatened with redundancy #boycottLeicester @uniofleicester

[UCU Chester @ChesterUcu]

We made a real impression in Chester today! So much support for our campaign from students and the public. Everyone is concerned about the direction of the university under the current senior team #ReclaimOurUniversity

📢 'senior management idiocy'

What are YOUR reasons for being part of the RALLY TO RECLAIM OUR UNIVERSITY?

Join @ChesterUcu and #noredundancieschester for the rally to #reclaimouruniversity : 12pm, Sat 24 July, Chester Town Hall. 💪

[profstevewilko @profstevewilko]

@NoRedundancies @ChesterUcu I'm coming because I'm still worried about the future. THREE of our BEST engineering staff felt so under-valued they have LEFT us - so in this sense management has won and I do not want this to happen again. See you very soon friends!!!!

[Archaeology Chester @ArchaeologyChe1]

4 months campaigning against compulsory redundancy plans at the University of Chester @NoRedundancies @ChesterUcu
Thanks to @UCU negotiations & campaigning plus external support, we saved many jobs but...
1⃣many left through voluntary severance & won't be replaced...

[Archaeology Chester @ArchaeologyChe1]

2⃣we've lost valued colleague pressured out via early retirement
3⃣superb colleagues remain at risk of redundancy
4⃣ongoing gaslighting and victim-blaming by management with thinly veiled threats
5⃣senior management misused public funds & still not held to account

[NoRedundanciesChester @NoRedundancies]

I wonder if anyone has told the @VC_UoChester just HOW MANY flyers are up around the city?!!

Let's hope so.

(Although sadly, I don't think she'll come.)

The @ChesterUcu #reclaimouruniversity rally: 12pm, THIS SAT, Chester Town Hall.

As senior management teams across the country slash and burn their institutions, cutting excellent staff and departments without a thought, Chester’s VC gives us a snapshot of the perks and paybacks those same managers have come to expect. THREAD 1/7
