Shocking.
Another senior manager jumps ship!
Stephen Dudderidge, one of the butchers of Brighton responsible for mass redundancies at @uniofbrighton has decided that he can't deal with the mess he has made and is leaving.
We offer deep sympathy to @DerbyUni and @UniDerbyUCU

The UoB VC gets PGRs to fill in the massive gaps in teaching created by sacking everyone
Yet also says PGRs aren't proper academics and says we should get a pay cut🤔
How much contempt is it possible for one VC to have for its staff and students?

After 100+ redundancies in 2023, the VC @uniofbrighton used her first email of 2024 to announce:
👋Voluntary severance scheme
💀Plan to remove all entitlement to research time from academics
🛑Plan to remove the weekly cap on teaching hours
Haven't they caused enough damage?!

Junior doctors didn’t waste billions of taxpayers’ money on dodgy contracts.
Junior doctors didn’t sell off our health service.
Junior doctors didn’t cause record-high waiting lists.
The Tories created this crisis. Solidarity with junior doctors striking to save our NHS.

Another research centre closed by the arsonists in UoB management, this time the SECP.
Management said it was closed for "not being ambitious enough" despite having a highly ambitious research plan.
UoB is no longer about quality research. Its about money. That's all.

UN experts have warned that we are witnessing a genocide in the making.
Home by home, hospital by hospital, generation by generation, Palestinians are being wiped out before our very eyes.
MPs had the chance to demand a ceasefire. The majority chose to cheer on war instead.

As @BrightonUCU members walked back into work after a record breaking strike and with the dispute with @uniofbrighton still ongoing, right on cue was a clap of thunder that heralded a terrific hailstorm.
It is clearly not the end...!

It was such a privilege to stand side by side with the #UCUSuperheroes. The fight goes on, and we will continue supporting our lecturers, supervisors, and colleagues.
Whose university? Our university!
