Impossible not to notice the #HeartUnions stall organised by @ucu & @unisontheunion at South Essex College today for staff & students. Every worker needs a union card in their pocket but it's especially true for young workers. Joining a union can be a life-saver and a way of life

Almost one in six staff put at risk of redundancy.

Shocking fire and rehire scheme at The Open University 🚨
Forcing 160 lectures to accept lower pay is unacceptable 👇
"It is a very serious situation because everyone is worried if they get away with it once, then they will do it again" @oubucu

Organising isn’t just about political events it’s also about being part of your College community. The annual quiz at Suffolk New College is a brilliant example of that. Here is the fabulous Nadia who runs the quiz, assisted this year by @DrJoGrady as quizmaster.

Staff have been forced to pay the price for UEA’s financial crisis.
Yet the leader responsible has walked away with a £97k pay off. Disgraceful.
