So we must routinely withhold research that was not fully and adequately paid for by the institution that claims it. Then the #UCUstrike will have a chance of making the management take action.

Otherwise if you strike from teaching but not from reffable research you hurt only the students, and the university is laughing all the way to the research funding bank. They cut your pay. You do more research, for free, on that day. That's helping them not hurting them.

The university is not entitled to claim research that you paid for, research done in unpaid time, research and contributions to the research community done over and above your weekly working hours.

But please please, if you do this today or any other strike day, or if you do it in the evening or at weekends or during your leave or statutory holidays (the many weeks when we work more than we're paid for), please please mark that publication as your own, and not for the REF.

An appeal to all my academic colleagues. If you're going to secretly break the strike, by doing your research at home where no one can see, I understand. There are deadlines and there's never enough time to do the research properly without straying into unpaid time. #ucuRISING

RT @BWallArthur: The media... It's not fair if teachers go on strike. Children have missed too much education

The media... How amazing is it that schools have stopped teaching to let kids watch a football game.

RT @GreenPartyJack: Interesting to hear Michael Gove saying that homes should be fit for human habitation. Of course, in 2016 309 Conservative MPs voted against a proposal that would have required private sector landlords to ensure their properties are fit for human habitation.

RT @Harry_is_human: So experience with Norwich Police this year.

Driver drives into me on my bicycle 'No further action as no damage.'

Stand in a pedestrianised road, refuse to move for illegally driven car.

'9 hours in custody and charged with obstructing highway'.

@RefugeeAction What she does not admit is that it is exactly what she wants and intends, and that she has no interest in helping youngsters from *those countries* join their family here and escape war or persecution, and is quite happy for them to drown on the way here.
