University teaching staff have had a 20% real terms pay cut over the last decade & they now face a 12-35% cut to their pensions. Management’s refusal to engage in the middle of a cost of living crisis is shameful. University of Nottingham UCU branch members on strike have my full solidarity and support.

I have covered UK university sector disputes over #pension cuts since 2017 and can say that I have not seen members so angry as they are today over fresh cuts to their retirement benefits. The anger has reached a new depth. This does feel like a turning point. #USS #UUK #UCU

University staff and students are on strike today together. Staff working conditions are students' learning conditions, and together they're fighting for an education system that works for all. Solidarity to UCU and NUS UK ✊🏽 #StudentStrike #OneOfUsAllOfUs

Looking forward to reading Michael Guida's fantastic sounding book on Listening to British Nature. There's a book talk coming up on 21 March, too! newnatures.org/greenhouse/eve…
