Our General Secretary @DrJoGrady went on @BBCNewsnight last night to tell the nation about the shockingly low pay of further education college lecturers 👇

We're fighting for pay parity with schoolteachers ✊
The additional £300m from the government has to be ring-fenced for staff pay.

Thanks to Lauren Edwards MP for Rochester and Strood for taking the time out to meet with our fantastic Further Education members at Parliament to discuss the state of FE and what needs to be done to fix it!

Is @ulsteruni VC oblivious to what is currently happening in England?
In this disappointing interview he argues that the fees & funding system operating in England provides more "stability" for HE
Not in the experience of our English comrades, VC!!

The DfE has refused to fund the 5% rise in employers’ contributions to the TPS for higher education institutions @ucu
Many university employers already face severe financial difficulties
Govts refusal to intervene puts thousands of jobs on the line

The Daily Express would like to hide the fact that they’ve issued an apology to Prof Kate Sang, a UCU member that they smeared.
Let’s not allow them to do that. Please share.
