I have really valued getting to know Chris through my work reporting to East Midlands region, and in our work for locked-out branches, and have seen how much he cares for our union. Thank you Chris for this endorsement for my VP campaign. rhiannonforucuvp.wordpress.com/2025/02/21/end…

Nominations are public, so I’m pleased (& nervous!) to announce I’m running for VP in the UCU elections. I believe in an optimistic, caring & fighting union, grounded in bottom-up democracy. Thank you to my branch BCU, @UcuLeft & non-aligned comrades for all the support so far!

The National Gallery in London is renovating its Sainsbury Wing and they’ve just found a secret letter from one of the original donors, sunk into a concrete column, saying that he hates the columns and is glad they’re being demolished. 10/10 unhinged rich man behaviour, no notes

The sudden passing of Agnes Flues is a dreadful shock for all of us at UCU, and a great loss to the movement. Witty, practical, dedicated, hard-working, passionate, compassionate and always willing to do everything she could, are just some of the words to describe her as a…

It does not feel real or possible that we have lost you @AgnesFlues. Devastated, words aren't enough💔 Such a wonderful, genuine, smart, kind, funny friend and dedicated comrade who always made sure to listen and understand, always ready to work with people to find a way forward

Ambulances can’t get to dying people because they’re stuck outside of hospitals full of patients we could discharge if we just had more carers in the community, so I’m delighted that the government has taken decisive action to ban these carers from living with their families.

Today in Parliament we have laid an order to ban overseas care workers from bringing dependants. This is just one part of our plan to deliver the biggest-ever cut in migration 👇

UCU should lead the way as an employer by employing best practice in its own workplace, and I believe that with @zenscara as GS it would. vickyblakeucu.uk/endorsements/#… #vicky4GS
