Kate, Branch President of HWUCU, addressing the joint rally today
Individually we may feel scared but together there is nothing that can stop us.
Each of us, standing together, can save Higher Education.

My (thankfully) short speech from today's rally @ucuedinburgh.bsky.social @hwucu.bsky.social @ucuscotland.bsky.social #SaveScholar #SaveLincs
An inflatable elephant holding a banner Protect Scholar at Heriot-Watt Don't erase decades of digital learning
Ed (ucate) the ELEPHANT
will not FORGET about Scholar.
Protect Scholar at Heriot-Watt!
We believe in learning.
We support equity
We believe universities are there not just to run as businesses, not just for bits of paper, but to reach out into their communities, to educate.

The unionised inflatables take their scheduled breaks
Day 5 on the Pickets.
Our employer has nothing new to say & so is not talking.
So there is nowhere else we would rather BEE than with our colleagues in the sun.
We are indefatigable and INFLATABLE, unlike Heriot-Watt University who have let themselves down.

Another EGG-cellent day on the Pickets. Student sign makers out in force.
We could not BEE anymore pleased with our RAWRsome inflatables who have done more for staff morale in a few hours than Heriot-Watt has all year.
