As I’m finishing university soon, I’ll be leaving @SSSLeeds.

It’s been a great few years mobilising students to support staff.

We’ve had plenty of successes, including lobbying LUU to support strike action.

I’m sure students will keep up the fight for a fairer HE system. ✊

[George Aylett @GeorgeAylett]

Very sad to hear that @Jonathan_M_Dean has passed away.

I fondly remember his talk on the UCU at a @SSSLeeds event when I first arrived in Leeds.

His pieces on left wing politics were very interesting, and I’m forever grateful for his feedback as part of my PhD transfer panel.

[Leeds Student Staff Solidarity @SSSLeeds]

We are very saddened to hear this.

Jonathan’s work on left politics, populism, and feminism will always hold importance.

Jonathan was also a UCU activist who always valued student-staff solidarity.

We send our condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, and students

We are deeply saddened to share the news of the untimely passing of Jonathan Dean – a dear colleague, friend, and cherished member of our community. We've collected some heartfelt tributes from his colleagues. https://t.co/UMR7XiuPPn

Proud to have spent many cold mornings on picket lines with staff for the past few years to get this result.

Strikes work!

Don’t remember seeing the @UniversityLeeds ‘announcing’ this… but great news that they are no longer banking with climate-wrecking @BarclaysUK.

Shout out to the long running @PandPLeeds and more recent UoL @DivestBarclays campaigns for making this happen! ✊
