Over (part 1)…….. but certainly not out
Today saw the last of the current UCU strike days in the on-going HE unions’ dispute with management over the unacceptably meagre salary increase of approximately 5 percent being imposed on all staff. Ironically, while university sector chiefs are expecting … Continue reading
A love song to Education from the UCU…..
Our Vice Present elect Karen Lorimer has done a marvellous job above, encapsulating just some of the moments the branch shared on the picket line during the current period of dispute. Below are some of today’s photos as well. Tomorrow … Continue reading
Another University is Possible……
Another university is possible – one that really does live the values of the ‘common good’ but is also one where a new generation of students is created – a generation that lives our values, debates them with staff, and … Continue reading
Hope to see you at the Picket…. And the Teach In
Following on from the tremendous support from GCU students during the UCU (and EIS….and Unison) pickets, the local UCU branch have organised a Teach-In on Monday 20th March, immediately following our picket. Hope to see you there. The UCU strike … Continue reading
No ifs….and definitely no butts……
A strange thing happened on our latest UCU picket this morning (Wednesday 15th). A key point of the UCU Four Fights Campaign has been to demand action is taken to end the gender pay gap – which we don’t think … Continue reading
A nice way to end the (picketing) week…
As well as a long on-line interview on the Scotsman’s Video page (see below, or directly here), the UCU@GCU picket had the young team in action again today, helping their parents spread the message for fair pay. And again – … Continue reading
Why does it always rain on me….?
By Travis helped keep wet spirits up as the new Gazebo (see caledonianunion passim) was set up and ready for a wet day of picketing. As always, students were out to help, and Louisa Richardson, the Students union women’s officer … Continue reading
Love was in the air…..but pay still wasn’t fair
We were joined in force by the Young Team today, including Piper and Asher, who made sure everyone knew that this strike was a family affair. Despite a tremendous Valentines Spotify Playlist by UCU President Catriona Mowat there was no … Continue reading
Glad you joined the show…. and how was breakfast?
Given that the Unison cleaning staff had been on the picket line since 6.30 this morning (and similarly the two days before), it wasn’t surprising that UCU members arriving only at 8 am were greeted with friendly statements of the … Continue reading
We are the University for the Common Good. Management needs to reconsider its position on pay deductions
It’s the role of the Trade Unions to speak for, defend, and act for staff at GCU. Management manage the operation of the university, under the strategic eye of the University Court. Peoples Services (HR) are expected to help smooth … Continue reading
