On Thursday 2nd October, I spoke at the UCU rally at the University of Nottingham - not to complain about lost lectures, but to stand up for what's right.

"Why arent they voluntary" (i hear you ask)

Because people are scared they will be made redundant
Because many feel bullied into it
Because they want to try have some control over their future

New picket day, new sign. As cuts go up, services go down. Upset by the cut in library hours? Just you wait until cuts take effect!

Me, on a hammock, in the sun.

Given all the time I've spent over the years standing on pickets in the snow and cold and drizzle, I would like to thank the North East weather system for finally letting me stick it to the man (woman) by not-working in beautiful weather...

Friendly reminder from an HR professor: voluntary severances aren’t really “voluntary” if future compulsory redundancies are still on the table.
