Today we held a demo, against poverty pay imposed year after year by a useless UCEA and inept politicians who refuse to fund our sector. Tomorrow, with heavy but determined hearts, we strike. See you at 8am on the pickets.

UCEA just do not care about our members, frankly hard to see they care about their own members either. See you on the pickets.

.@unitetheunion members at 5 universities in Scotland are on strike later this week over real-terms pay cuts. A 1.4% pay rise has been imposed, & with RPI inflation at 3.6% this is a massive real terms pay cut. Solidarity.

Good morning from a sunny University of Glasgow as 1,000 Unite members at Glasgow, Strathclyde and Edinburgh Napier universities set off on their 24hr strike action over an imposed real-terms pay cut.

We don't really use this app any more due to the heinous owner and the people whose attitudes he encourages. We're over on Instagram more. However, we do have some big news: we got the highest statutory ballot turnout in our history! 💪

🚨 ALERTA! ALERTA! 🚨 The results of the consultative ballot on the national pay offer of 1.4% are in. Our members have voted overwhelmingly to reject the offer and move to a strike ballot. This is the highest turnout we've seen for a ballot in our Branch's history! ✊

We're at Unite Policy Conference this week, hearing a barnstorming speech from the striking Birmingham refuse workers. Shame on the bosses and politicians trying to break their strike after six months of industrial action against up to £8,000 pay cuts.

Today's vote sets a dangerous, chilling precedent for civil liberties and the right to protest. Protesting against genocide is not a crime. Proscribing such actions as terrorism is an overreach by the state. Politicians would do well to remember that during the vote this evening
Amnesty UK@AmnestyUK

🚨 TODAY: MPs will vote on the Government’s motion to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation. 👉🏽 Call to action: tag your MP on this post If Palestine Action is proscribed this week, by the weekend any MP’s constituents wearing a Palestine Action sticker, badge or T-shirt could face a terrorism charge. The question is: do MPs and peers really believe that Palestine Action’s activities justify such a grave misuse of anti-terrorism powers? Full open letter to MPs and Peers: amn.st/60174Yy3t

🚨BREAKING 🚨 Following the refusal of @Village_Hotels to negotiate with @unitetheunion in good faith to improve pay, contracts & conditions for workers there, we have been left with no choice but to *ballot* our members for industrial action at their flagship site in Glasgow.

"Unite Reps are the backbone of our union & the work you do to improve & protect people’s jobs, pay & conditions matters so much to our members. The life of a Rep can be really rewarding. But it can be tough. That’s why we have now developed a free, dedicated mental health support programme for all Unite Reps & immediate families" @UniteSharon in Facts & Figures unitetheunion.org/fandf

Get yourself a Branch Secretary with a pile of envelopes and a good playlist to while away the day like some Socialist Santa. That's most of the diaries now found homes, anyone still after one - just drop us an email or comment in the Unite Teams channel.

An arms factory union rep writes: "A vision for manufacturing beyond arms production is the way to guarantee that our skills are used not in pursuit of war crimes but to benefit society." Read an extract from our brand new issue in today's @ScotNational thenational.scot/politics/24813…

That awkward moment when Universities have to explain why they are reporting whacking surpluses during a funding crisis due to USS provision reversing out…having argued for years that the sector was in deficit because of the ‘costs’ of the USS. Time to have your cake and eat it?
