BREAKING🚨| The government has announced anti-strike legislation. When workers democratically vote to strike, they can be forced to work and sacked if they don’t. This is wrong, unworkable, and almost certainly illegal.

WE NEED EVERY UCU MEMBER TO RT THIS Next year we will take strike action to change our sector forever. Every single member has the chance to input into the decisions we make. Read this document, share your ideas and get involved. 🔗 bit.ly/3G9z38x #ucuRISING
