What a day! 100+ on the Swansea University UCU pickets followed by a massive turnout at the SwanseaTradesCouncil rally in town. Striking is hard, draining and costly but knowing we are in this alongside thousands of other workers makes it that bit easier #ucuRISING

Bringing this absolute legend along with me to #ucuRISING picket with colleagues Swansea University UCU this morning as her school is also on strike. Going to a picket line is the best educational activity this Politics lecturer can think of.

Seven years of studying

Only to end up on short term contracts that don’t pay the bills

Our members have no choice but to take industrial action

Morning from Swansea University Swansea University UCU #ucuRISING #UCUstrike

In goes my YES vote #ucurising Swansea University UCU 👊✊💪

Fashionably late #VoteYes #UCURising UCU Swansea University UCU

Received my UCU @UCUWales ballot for #yes23 posted this morning #ucuRISING Swansea University UCU Janet Farrar Past President of UCU Swansea University members make ensure you post your ballot by this weekend #brotherandsister #Together #wewin

It's such a disingenuous response.

Yes SLTs it's a national dispute and you can't solve it on your own, but that doesn't mean you are powerless.

You can influence things nationally by calling for negotiations, and repair relationships with staff by stopping punitive deductions.

I have voted YES in the reballot because improvements in pay, pensions, and working conditions in UK HE are important, needed, and achievable. Join me in keeping up the pressure! Swansea University UCU UCU Jo Grady #ucuRISING

Feeling reinvigorated after a great day with Swansea University UCU & Jo Grady, discussing our current position in the dispute, the reality of what’s on the table & what comes next. Striking is surprisingly hard work but it feels like we’re beginning to see our efforts pay off. #ucuRISING

Bay campus picket Swansea University UCU we're here protecting the future of education at Swansea University. Fair pay and pensions aren't magically granted, we have them because unions have persistently fought for them. Supporting the strikes is how we support a fair society. Solidarity all ✊
