Dougal joining #dogsonpickets at Coach Lane again today #FourFights

The vice-chancellor-profile raises were specially tough; so much so that after he leaves in May people will hardly notice. Good for him his pension is sound & safe #FourFights Gymnastics

Students are the future of the future - and yet how can we encourage students to enter this sector when it's so broken? We all have a responsibility to make it better. Join us, and vote YES in the reballot. Together, we can win and protect their future. #OneOfUsAllOfUs

Northumbria University picket lines at Coach Lane Campus @UCUNUbranch #UCUstrike

Glorious day on the picket line #FourFights

CEO Andrew Wathey, AKA VC of Northumbria University, crossing the pickets at Coach Lane Campus this morning, refusing to take one of our #FourFights fliers or to discuss his massive salary

Lovely engagement with students on the picket line today, Dougal enjoyed every minute #ucustrike

Only my child would decide to do the Santa run in a Sully suit 🤣

Dougal doesn't look impressed but after 9 years of Tory rule, who is? Wait till you see him tomorrow! #dogsatpollingstations

@SocialWhatNow @LewisORoberts @BASW_UK I wondered if you two knew each other! I think you will make a very effective pairing 🙂

Champion to meet up for (gourmet) coffee with @LewisORoberts this AM, chatting about how I can support the good work of @BASW_UK NE branch. Heading to these events for a start, & thinking hard abt bringing diverse voices/perspectives to future ones. Next stop... branch committee?

@SocialWhatNow Yep!

@felloutofbed Hey Cat 😁. Yes! This is what I'm driving at - AOP's a thing, a particular, political thing. And cos it's political it's seen as dangerous, or at least highly undesirable. Social justice on the other hand is 'woolly', ripe for co-option by for e.g. neoliberalist movements.

Short blog about antioppressive practice. I’d be grateful if people could share any current examples of antioppressive social work, either at policy/strategy level or in everyday practice. link.medium.com/seuyQU5ZV0
