Numbers are building for our rally tomorrow. Come along and join our protest against compulsory redundancies at Cardiff Metropolitan University. @AddysgEducation @JoStevensLabour @ABarrosCurtis @JennyRathbone @WG_Education @WelshGovernment @PrifWeinidog @ucu @CardiffUCU

At a time when we should be investing in educators, Cardiff Met wants to lay them off. Disgraceful. Solidarity with @UCUCardiffMet members protesting at Llandaff campus on Thursday at 11.30 am against these unjust redundancies. Enough is enough. nation.cymru/news/protest-p…

pizza and football are great 😍 @willfuller1 @CardiffMetSU @cardiffstudents @nusuk @NUSWales But so is stable staffing in universities Fewer staff = bigger classes, less individual support time, higher workloads.

It is deeply concerning that Cardiff Met continue to propose Compulsory Redundancies. Please voice your concerns - They are currently in the consultation period. @ucu @DrJoGrady @CymruUCU @JoStevensLabour @VikkiHowells @Eluned_Morgan @AddysgEducation @ABarrosCurtis @CardiffTC

UCU have requested that Cardiff Met re-open voluntary severance, or if necessary a VOLUNTARY redundancy programme across the whole university. Compulsory redundancies are unnecessary and short sighted @ucu @unisontheunion @UCUCymru @AddysgEducation @JoStevensLabour

K considers the tension between creating an authentic representation of the communities + the risk of somehow exposing or making them vulnerable. Unlike historical ethnographic research contemporary researchers form relationships of reciprocity, trust + even friendships.

Looking forward to this:
