400 jobs. A campus at the heart of a town. That’s worth fighting for. If you agree, share this post, like it, and show your solidarity with our colleagues at University of Essex striking today.

How are @UCUNUbranch members feeling about bosses @NorthumbriaUni ripping off pay and/or pensions, ripping up contracts, and ripping us out of national bargaining? All the emotions below👇 ...and well up for coming battles. ✊✊✊

From University of the Year to a climate of fear. 450 job cuts at Ulster University will hollow out academic provision, devastate staff and damage students. UCU will fight every redundancy. Please show your support to colleagues @UCU_Ulster bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Another day out and proud on the picket lines today at Northumbria University. Staff are fighting to defend the Teachers’ Pension Scheme and stop management’s attempt to force them out through pay freezes. This is about dignity, security and refusing to let pensions be stripped away. Show your support to @UCUNUbranch

Amazing scenes in Newcastle as @UCUNUbranch Northumbria colleagues come out in force to fight for pensions and fair pay. These things should be a given but if we must fight we will. Show your support! ✊

I travelled on an @eduint trip to Palestine. But we never got there. We were detained for 5+ hours, grilled and refused entry by Israeli forces. It was intimidating and a violation of our rights. It is nothing compared to what Palestinians go through every day under occupation.

Freezing pay to force staff out of their pension is unacceptable. Northumbria must rethink its plans before lasting damage is done. ucu.org.uk/article/14383/…

“Rationing Tesco Value coffee is not a lifestyle choice it’s the result of poverty pay.” @DrJoGrady This cannot be the reality for the people educating the next generation. Our demands are not only fair they are essential for this country.

UCU members are on strike today in 25 colleges across the UK. Their starting salaries are just above minimum wage and well below their equivalents in schools and 6th form colleges. This has to change. Let our members know you back them.

@AVCT creating opportunities for young people in the community. Great @IanByrneMP could attend. I’m proud to be a trustee of this amazing community organisation.

What a night❤️ Huge credit to @AVCT for working with the Youth Investment Fund to create opportunities in the arts for working class kids from West Derby & across the city. The singing and dancing were performed with real talent and joy. Take a bow, Judy, Phil & all the whole team at @AVCT for creating what I’m certain will be a lasting artistic legacy for the city. And a massive thank-you to the kids who absolutely smashed it out of the park. I was so proud to witness this wonderful community programme tonight.
