Is it true that it’s now well past your bedtime
Another busy, positive, inclusive set of @ucunorthumbria.bsky.social strikers on the picket line @northumbriauni.bsky.social - we're here until the job is done!
Our Certification Officer hearing (Blake & McGaughey v UCU) resumes tomorrow (Tue 3 March 2026) online
As before, it is open to the public if you have requested a link from the CO’s office (info [at] certoffice [dot] org)
@ewanmg.bsky.social and I continue to represent our own case in this process
Footage from Minab, Iran, shows the aftermath of an Israeli-US strike on a girls' elementary school that reportedly killed more than 50 people.
Starmer is an extreme centrist, though the centre is now firmly on the right
Well, it was a good win in Gorton and Denton
A 26.4% swing from Labour to Green. Huge and historic.
When a trade union management chose to ignore the first two of those three words, this is what happens. Meanwhile, trade unionists will continue to stand with fellow workers. Solidarity with @uniteucu.bsky.social
🚨 FIFTH consecutive vote for industrial action 🚨

Our members will not tolerate victimisation and won’t be intimidated.
UCU staff are not the enemy. It’s beyond time for the GS to talk to us.

Reform? Restore? Regurgitated, Rancid, Racist Revulsion.
It looks like Alba have disintegrated in exactly the same manner in which they have carried on for the last few years, in shambolic communication, internal feuding and bitter factionalism bellacaledonia.org.uk/2026/02/21/t...

This is what a picket line looks like... nice work @ucunorthumbria.bsky.social - enjoy the rest and we go again in March, unless bosses @northumbriauni.bsky.social feel like talking (we always do!) @andylong6.bsky.social
Jo Grady’s first election manifesto where she says she wants the GS to be more accountable to members
Staff aren’t allowed to say they’re on strike.
UCU members aren’t allowed to mention it to strike-breaking staff.
Regional committees can’t talk about it.
The NEC can’t talk about it.
Congress can talk about it but motions are declared out of order.
Is this the accountability Jo was meaning?

Hey, Braverman, how do you think someone becomes a nurse?
So. Much. NOOOOOOIIIIIISSSSSEEEEEE! (Because so much anger and solidarity.)
This is a thread about UCU & what it has become over the last few years. But the first thing I want to say is I didn’t join a union to stay silent or turn my back on a single parent of three facing dismissal on the basis of their trade union activities. Marie Monaghan is the Unite UCU 1/12
Nearly 800 staff left the University of Edinburgh last year as senior management pushes a £140m savings drive
This hits precarious staff hardest
It's a great comfort to learn that senior management pay & bonuses are unaffected 😉

Unite members in the north west on a picket line while taking strike action to defend Marie, their H&S rep, who is being subject to trade union victimisation by our employer.
Unite against TU Victimisation
@Unitetheunion.bsky.social doesn't tolerate the victimisation of its reps by employers. Today our members in the North West are showing what solidarity looks like.
It's time UCU ended the victimisation of Marie, our Health & Safety Officer.
