All well-and-good but this government needs to learn from New Labour’s failures. This sticking-plaster approach is okay in the short-term but without long-term structural changes to the welfare state, housing and the job market, deeply felt inequalities will persist.

Thanks everyone who has indicated they’d like to be involved. Please click this link and anonymously share your anecdotes and experiences of the UCU. We need working-class people to be heard. …ingclasssociologyquotes.wordpress.com/submit-anonymo…

Anonymously submit your feelings/thoughts/experiences/anecdotes regarding the UCU. The UCU is bad at representing working-class academics, who often fear the repercussions of speaking out. Here, you can make your feelings known anonymously! …ingclasssociologyquotes.wordpress.com/submit-anonymo…

If you’re having a quiet start to your Sunday afternoon, why not take a minute to anonymously vent your frustrations with the UCU. I’ve already had 10 unfiltered submissions but we need more if we are going to make the UCU hear us!

Again, the mayor posts a comment but disables replies. Why does he do this? It sends the message that he isn't interested in the views of others. For a high-profile elected representative, it's a bad look.

Resharing my blog post about why I decided to leave the UCU a couple of months ago. If you’d like to anonymously tell me why you decided to leave or are thinking of leaving the UCU, you’ll see a link to do so at the top of my website 👇 …ingclasssociologyquotes.wordpress.com/2025/04/28/i-l…

When you see a middle-class professor on a UCU picket line with a banner saying something like “working class of the world unite” (meanwhile gatekeeping opportunities from working-class academics and having a total disregard for the wellbeing of their working-class students)
