Morning UCU Jo Grady #UCUstrike time for fair pay and pensions UCU Newman Uni Bham

On many campuses there is dissatisfaction over pensions, pay and conditions. BBC Radio 4’s Six O’Clock News reports on the #UCUBallot results over #USS and pay & conditions. Starts at 21:40 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Jo Grady said: "The results can only be interpreted as clear support for strike action over pensions, pay and working conditions. The ballots reflect just how unhappy and angry staff are at the state of higher education in the UK." telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/10/3… via @telegraphnews

"The University and College Union (UCU) said the result was a serious indictment of the state of higher education, and demonstrated the depth of anger and frustration among those working in the sector, many of whom are on low-paid temporary contracts." buff.ly/2JEfsQ4
