UCU CoLC - Fighting for Better; For All

@PCSLiverpoolMus @BBCNWT @DCMS @lucyfrazermp @pcs_union @PCS_Northwest @PCSCultureGroup @ThangamMP @harrydoyle96 Solidarity

Great coverage on @BBCNWT about our strike over NML's refusal to pay a £1500 payment we believe is owed to us. If it wasn't owed why would NML's Chair have written repeatedly to government for the additional cash to pay it? End the strike now NML. #NMLPayUp

UCU Elections; last chance to vote & post your papers ! 😊@ucu @nw_ucu

Ucu City branch at City of Liverpool College passed a motion supporting the Palestinian people and sending a donation to medical aid @ucu_nw @ucu @pri

UCU ELECTIONS: Have you posted your ballot paper? Use your vote for a new leadership in the UCU elections. We endorse Saira from LJMU as GS, and Peter for VP. @nw_ucu

@awf_liverpool @MerseysideBLM The AW foundation signifies how important it is to keep Anthony's memory alive. All FE teachers should be raising awareness of what happened to Anthony and the racism that still pervades. Love to Dee and family on this day 💜 @ucu @ucu_nw

Today... would have been Anthony's 37th birthday. Our thoughts and prayers are with Gee and Anthony's family.

Israel has killed over 11,500 Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7th, when 36 Israeli children were killed. It’s impossible to imagine that number. This is what it looks like. A line 5km long. (Location: Bournemouth Beach)

Good morning university and college workers across the UK! Is your branch standing with Gaza and organising a walk out or a protest next Wednesday 7 Feb - @STWuk workplace day of action? Please let us know 👇🏼 or tag us in your tweets! #StandWithGaza #StopGenocideGaza @ucu

@JonnyWorst @JewishLabour Wrong

@JewishLabour Osamor is an antisemite - she should be thrown out of the Party.

Our statement on the inappropriate and offensive remarks from Kate Osamor MP

@KimJohnsonMP Ceasefire now. END THE GENOCIDE. END THE OCCUPATION.

An historic ruling from the ICJ today saying Israel must take steps to prevent genocidal acts, prevent and punish incitement to genocide, and report back on its actions within a month - and enable urgently needed humanitarian assistance. What we need is a #CeasefireNOW

Solidarity to the BMA and doctors taking a stand ...we will be in your debt for this struggle, thus sacrifice and strikes fir decades in order to stop and reverse the Tory cuts to pay and staff🫶

Our local lass from Liverpool John Moores Uni has her GS manifesto .....Saira Weiner 👇

@KimJohnsonMP @GhassanAbuSitt1 There is indeed a huge difference. Education WILL remove the blindfold & bias that exists amongst some people RE the Israel govt .... unfortunately we will be explaining the GENOCIDAL tsunami for decades.. shameful..horrific..

‘The difference between this assault on Gaza and every other is the difference between the flood and a tsunami.’ MPs in tears at the devastating eyewitness testimony from Dr Ghassan Abu Sittah about the conditions in al Shifa and Al Ahli hospitals.

Roll on 2024 ballot ...the FE sector still needs to reduce workload, sort pay out and agree to proper binding national negotiations.

End the Genocide now. The 5 UCU Colc branches are voting on motions of solidarity with the Palestinians ✊️www.teachpalestine for teaching resources @ucu_nw
