If you are a @ucu.org.uk member at the University of Sheffield, don't forget to vote! @sheffielducu.bsky.social
While the University of Sheffield management's assault on staff (and, indirectly, students) continues, we have no choice but to continue our dispute. I've just voted 'Yes' to ‘strike’ and ‘action short of a strike’. @sheffielducu.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk @ucuhallam.bsky.social

"dead quiet with me due to the strike so been perfect to get on with things"
Seriously doubt they understand that not only are they scabs, their 'work' will be rendered pointless by inaction #UCUStrike

Last day of #UCUstrike at the University of Sheffield, but our dispute is still very much on. We cannot leave the university in the hands of the profiteers - the city, the country, our students, and our conscience cannot afford that. #notoculturalvandalism @sheffielducu.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk

@sheffielducu.bsky.social member? This is your last chance to vote. Whatever your views, please protect democracy in your union, and do so immediately. Thank you. Please share. @ucu.org.uk #UCUstrike
Here goes my vote for strike action at the University of Sheffield. When your management treats staff & students as disposable commodities, it's your duty, even more than your right, to respond. @sheffielducu.bsky.social @zooarchlabsheff.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk #sheffield #university #workersrights

Nearly a thousand University of Sheffield staff say they have “no confidence” in vice-chancellor over cuts, following union vote
