HAVE YOU VOTED IN THE NEC ELECTIONS?

Dog bumped into their old mate, Puppy.

Puppy told Dog only 12% of UCU members vote in the NEC elections.

12% is not good enough!

This is why Dog is now texting all their friends reminding them to vote.

Be like Dog. TEXT YOUR FRIENDS!

Thank you to everyone who joined the pickets, march and rally yesterday for a huge day of action across Cambridge! UCU members do not forget to vote online to ❌REJECT❌ the latest paltry pay offer from UCEA. Yesterday we showed that we have the numbers to win a better deal ⚡️⚡️

"They’re [lecturers] not being listened to, the students aren’t benefiting but the people who are being paid such high amounts aren’t responding."

Students in Leeds tell @cathynewman why they support their teachers going on strike.
