Spread the word: Boycott Barclays Bank!
Barclay's profits from Israel’s oppression of Palestinians. Barclays has 1.6bn of shares in Elbit Systems and other weapons suppliers and is lending them £5bn. Don’t bank with them!

We can today report that following ACAS talks a full-time post has now been offered to our #PGRsAsStaff leads who were affected by a 40% job cut. As a result all planned action has been called off and our employer has been informed that we consider this dispute is now resolved.
Unite UCU members have today overwhelmingly voted to take strike action in support of their two #PGRsAsStaff colleagues. 71.22% of members who voted backed strike action on a 76.37% turnout.
We are obviously aware of the events from Friday involving the mistaken withdrawal of strike notices for two UCU branches, and the online commentary and statements which have followed.

I have retweeted many tweets about #USS. I won't stop. Neither will I forget being made to feel like a bad employee/teacher for standing for our rights. It angers me that HE employers made us feel like idealist fools and hurt our students in the process.
A must-listen audio thread 🧵 of an excellent @BBCRadioWales us & the @cardiffstudents president @PresidentCSU about the @cardiffuni graduation chaos:
“Yes, these students are frustrated. However, most are very supportive of UCU.”

NEW: Prison educators call for government clarity on contracts, pay + pension.
Prison education is the unsung part of post-school education. Lecturers often work in difficult of situations, with less pay + respect than other teachers.

New TUC analysis on latest pay data:
Current pay falls aren't being felt equally. Sectoral data shows that workers in wholesale, retail & hospitality, public sector, and construction are seeing biggest hit to real pay.
Workers in finance and business seeing the smallest hit.
We’re here all week!
Get your pink sashes, graduation badges, alternative graduation certificates, & stunning solidarity photo oops here!
