Edinburgh Uni. is skint, so it spends nearly half a million on consultants. "As is typical of senior managements’ pet projects though, the budget inflated massively and is now, only 9 months in, more than double the figure initially mentioned to staff.” heraldscotland.com/news/2670…

Staff are facing possible redundancies, but four senior university roles are being advertised.
One Glasgow lecturer says the situation “just doesn’t add up”, while the university insists there is more to the story. 👇 glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/scot…

GCU hiring senior managers while staff face redundancy. Incl UCU quote: "Bloating the university with yet more senior management... The principal needs to stop avoiding the negotiating table and meet us there to resolve this dispute.” #SaveHE #StopTheCuts glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/scot…

UCU pickets at GCU as strong as ever alongside EIS. Striking to save jobs and against compulsory redundancies. Doesn't make sense for university management to be spending millions buying land and recruiting management positions while cutting 100 jobs #SaveHE #StopTheCuts

Glasgow this morning to show support for @EISUnion @ucu members taking strike action against compulsory redundancies at @CaledonianNews
When staff from four unions are forced to take action, it’s time for management to listen and take a step back.
