Vogue magazine now has more credibility on #whistleblowing than the #NHS and #universities

Action on workplace bullying / harassment is such an easy win for a political party. It's not costly to fix this

Another bullying scandal at Universiteit Leiden
There is more external scrutiny at Dutch universities
The Dutch are serious about rooting out bullying & harassment
There are just as many Professors who create a 'culture of fear' in UK #universities . They are protected

It's an evisceration of UK's progressional & executive class
Vennells then getting CBE, chair of NHS trust, two directorships, member of Cabinet Office & shortlisted for Bishop of London is too extreme for satire
But it happened !

FOI is crucial in holding executive to account in #universities
Information on redundancies, senior management pay, finances & grievance statistics should be public accessible
Very wrong for valid FOI requests to be ruled 'vexatious' or 'troublesome'

At University of Aberdeen , the vexatious threshold for FOI requests is 34 requests since 1 January 2023
At Cambridge University , the threshold is just 12 FOI requests from Nov 2021 to Feb 2023 ....

Bullying is abundant in #Universities (eg UCU's survey)
Rather than tweeting, show us statistics
How many bullying incidents are there ? Was anyone disciplined? Are victims satisfied with outcome?
Universities won't answer these questions
It's all spin Universities UK
