I NEED EVERY UCU MEMBER AND SUPPORTER TO RT THIS THREAD. University bosses are rattled. Across the UK they are threatening UCU members with unfair and immoral pay deductions if they take part in action short of striking. This thread exposes every single one of them #ucuRISING

In Derry in 1972, people were marching against a system which denied one community access to voting rights, housing and work. It was not “religious bitterness” or “sectarian conflict,” it was Britain’s Jim Crow. You’ll never understand Bloody Sunday unless you understand that.
