#SaveHE
There may have been a funeral march, but nothing can kill our fighting spirit. And we'll keep fighting until every last job, every last degree, and every last bit of this university is safe.

And we'll also be staging a funeral march to the Trent building to make sure management sees the collective disappointment we have in their leadership. See you all on the picket line. Solidarity!

Huge picket at Glasgow Caledonian University with UCU, EIS, Unison and Unite all on strike. Hundreds hearing from Jo Grady and other unions' general secretaries. Spending millions buying land while cutting jobs makes no sense. #SaveHE #StopTheCuts

Still on strike, still not being paid, still fucking raging at colleagues too timid to strike and exploding in uncontrollable high volume, multi coloured hatred towards university management.

Still, mustn't grumble, hot toast and cocoa anyone?

The Peter (Mathieson) Principle

'The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to "a level of respective incompetence"'

‼️ANNOUNCING the second STUDENT-STAFF ASSEMBLY❤️‍🔥 🗓️Wednesday 30th September, 12-2pm 📍Provisional location: cabaret club in Teviot building (on Bristo sq), but this is will likely be too small so we might have to move to a bigger avenue. The first assembly sold out twice, so DON’T MISS THIS AND MAKE SURE TO REGISTER and tell your friend! (Link in bio) The first student-staff assembly last Thursday was a historical moment for the University of Edinbugh. Nearly 1000 of us showed up to make sense together of what is going on and how affected we all are by the decisions made by Peter Mathieson and Kim Graham – the senior management – to cut 90 programmes and hundreds of jobs, forcing the union to call a 5-week strike to defend staff’ livelihood. Students testified about how the rise in student debt and the rent spiking in uni accommodation. International students talked about the sense of being treated like cash cows. Scottish students described the cultural erasure happening as programmes & courses related to Gaelic, Celtic and Scottish studies have been targeted for cuts. PhD students talked about the disappearing of tutorials and the massive cuts to tutors position that allowed them to survive. >90 programme closures announced after the start of term. Total lack of transparency and consultation. Peter Mathieson buying fancy buildings and paying himself £420k+ salary on the back of student debt and job cuts. The uni is wealthier than ever before. So WHY should the staff lose their jobs and the students get into more and more debt for less and less education? What to expect for the 2nd assembly:· Financial Analysis: what’s special about Edinburgh · collective strategy of withholding fees due to loss of 25% of teaching · Know Your Rights training (focus on visas) · Mapping decision-makers · Updates from Working Groups - these are OPEN TO ALL: Tactics - Comms - Media and Arts & Craft - Welfare and Support - Reclaiming Learning - International Students Group. · Q&A between staff and students about the strike, assessments, course closures, cuts, etc. We will no longer be ignored. Students and Staff ARE the university#solidarity

Which, in turn, bring us even closer to reversing course closures, holding student staff ratios in place, cancelling compulsory redundancies, and inevitably winning.

When we fight together, we win. Please fight with us.
