    We are marching on @Cambridge_Uni to demand #Justice4CollegeSupervisors, because this world-class education is overwhelmingly delivered by precarious staff, many of whom aren’t even paid the minimum wage for their work

    🗣️ WE ARE ON THE BRINK OF ACHIEVING RECOGNITION! 🗣️ After two years of negotiations, we are about to get recognised by the @Cambridge_Uni for all our bargaining groups (academic, academic-related, and research staff). It has been a hard fight - 🧵

    UPDATE: Swingeing pay cuts for not rescheduling classes as part of ASOS are NOT going ahead. @Cambridge_Uni has backed down after protests from staff and students. Our motion showed we wouldn't be bullied and our members organised to push back. We can beat this attack.
