You’ve got until Sunday to request a replacement ballot if you didn’t get / lost / discarded yours. GET STAFF A VOICE AGAIN.

We’re seeing restructures across the sector (including @qmul.bsky.social) where managers deliberately avoid staff input. A mandate forces them to listen. #WeAreTheUniversity
