Tories have cut the money set aside for the poorest school children by £140 million, despite pledging to protect it in their 2017 Manifesto. The Conservative government failing yet again on education, they are just not up to the job.. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

The careless and callous attitude of Kensington and Chelsea Council which saw people incinerated in their own homes is now on course to see those residents who lost their homes, neighbours and friends thrown out of the country. Disgraceful. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

We have learned that The University of Sheffield are asking PG students to cross picket lines & spend all day checking if lectures are happening. What's in it for them? 2 hours' pay. Pure exploitation for a full day's work. PhD students: why not join @UCU for free instead? #USS

As requested a retweet! Maybe #Marr or #Peston would care to comment and I suspect the #bbc could offer @bbradleymp some advice on how to cover a story with just enough rope as to not get hung. #JC4PM #bbcqt. Great to see this MP leading on public ownership! x.com/bbradleymp/sta…

The quote Andrew Marr (mis)used was where I was talking about a Turkish style Customs Union Agreement — not a full Customs Union between U.K. & EU which is what Labour has consistently recognised the benefits of including our manifesto! Wake up Andrew!

A nations future relies on the investment in education of its young people!! Labour will scrap tuition fees and invest in an education system #ForTheManyNotTheFew

Today's statement in the House of Commons, formally closing the 2nd half of the #Leveson Inquiry, demonstrates beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Tories are in the pocket of the gutter press. But make no mistake #ChangeIsComing with the next Labour Govt

Yesterday, I was proud to speak at the @UCU rally. In the last week, thousands of university staff have taken part in the biggest strike our Higher Education sector has ever seen. Whether it is on the picket line or in parliament, the Labour Party stands in solidarity with them.

Looks like Sheffield Alumni (and others) have had some serious words with The University of Sheffield over their punitive pay docking PR disaster. Well done everyone who brought attention to this. Huge climbdown. #USS #USSstrike x.com/sheffielduni/s…

UCU tell BBC News (UK) that a lot of the teaching in universities is, in fact, done by people precariously employed, struggling to make ends meet and universities have been trying to sweep it under the carpet. bbc.co.uk/news/43145319

The #USSstrike talks end with no resolution as Universities UK say no more talks until Wednesday afternoon ucu.org.uk/article/9382/P… #USS
