@JoeyWright_ Manchester Piccadilly is ran by Avanti West Coast. They can still assist you however with the running times of services and the next available departures. ^Jay

@ScholarshipfPhd So everyone who has a problem is weak? Or I need to be more balanced? Please consider critically positioning yourself in relationship to such no-doubt well-meaning but uncited and overly generalised statements.

.@RoyalHistSoc is deeply concerned by the scale and speed of further #History redundancies @GoldsmithsUoL. These cuts will remove student choice, wreak havoc on careers, and end specialist teaching and research.

📢 A few weeks back management at @GoldsmithsUoL went to @GdnUniversities to say it would save the Black British Literature course.
NOT TRUE.
They are “quietly killing” off its master’s degree programmes in both queer and black history.

Goldsmiths is seriously under threat, as are various other arts and humanities institutions. Our SMT is proposing 133 academic redundancies. Join the fight to resist - please retweet.

What the students write here isn’t hyperbole. These two colleagues worked tirelessly for years to build jazz @GoldsmithsUoL into something remarkable & it would be entirely unworkable without them.
These are just 2 of 97 redundancies

If Goldsmiths - with a very strong & active union - can get away with sacking nearly 100 people for spurious financial reasons, then I shudder to think about what's next for other universities. Please send messages of support to @GoldsmithsUCU & donate to gofundme.com/f/help-goldsmi…
