This is a choice of the VC. With ”under 10 posts” at risk, he could have ruled out compulsory redundancies & let departments get on with their planning Instead, we have: “A university is in chaos with no clarity on who is teaching what amid a swathe of job cuts” www.dailypost.co.uk/news/north-w...

Our members have no confidence in the VC & CFO, as they pursue the same failed cuts they used against @leicesterucu.bsky.social Spending £1.4 million of additional Welsh Gov funding on unplanned spend while making staff redundant was a disqualifying lack of judgement nation.cymru/news/bangor-...

Nid oes gan ein haelodau unrhyw hyder yn yr Is-ganghellor a'r Prif Swyddog Ariannol. Roedd eu penderfyniad i wario £1.4 miliwn o linell achub ariannol Llywodraeth Cymru ar seilwaith diangen, heb ei gynllunio yn dangos diffyg barn syfrdanol. newyddion.s4c.cymru/article/30355

Money for buildings, but not for staff ...

We have always been clear what our red line is: no compulsory redundancies We will do everything in our power to defend that red line. If management do not want to see industrial disruption, they need to issue a guarantee of no compulsory redundancies www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-n...

Staff and students at Bangor University deserve better than a chaotic and rushed consultation that was full of mistakes 88% of staff voted YES to strike, because our members know a joke of a process when they see one, with decisions having been made long beforehand nation.cymru/news/staff-a...

Mae staff a myfyrwyr ym Mhrifysgol Bangor yn haeddu gwell nag ymgynghoriad anhrefnus a brysiog oedd yn llawn camgymeriadau Pleidleisiodd 88% IE i streicio, oherwydd mae ein haelodau'n gwybod jôc o broses gyda phenderfyniadau'n cael eu gwneud ymlaen llaw pan welant un nation.cymru/news/staff-a...

An example of a culture where it is one rule for those at the top and another for everyone else. University of Dundee culture change will happen only when people who have aligned themselves with the values of the previous Principal and interim Principal, resign www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/politics/...

We will continue to fight on behalf of our members’ jobs, conditions, and the academic disciplines being decimated with every tool at our disposal including consulting our members about future industrial action.

“A kick in the teeth” - 13% pay rise for the VC while jobs are on the line is inexcusable. Thank you to every student, staff member, and community ally who stood in solidarity with @bangorucu.bsky.social yesterday. We will keep fighting. ✊

Fantastic turnout at our rally in Bangor yesterday! The message has been delivered well & clear to university management. All three campus trade unions are united on this. Compulsory redundancies are an absolute red line for us & we will mobilise to defend our members! www.itv.com/watch/news/b...

"Dydy'r brifysgol ddim yn gallu rhedeg heb ein aelodau ni, nac ydy?" - Cwestiwn teg gan ein cymrawd Unsain ar y rali ddoe Fel y dywedodd ein his-lywydd @vthuppil.bsky.social, mae diswyddiadau gorfodol yn llinell goch lwyr i ni. fb.watch/AbWK2TsC9u/

"Os ydyn ni'n colli capasiti, mi fydd y brifysgol yn mynd yn llai ac yn llai nes mae'n diflannu," www.bbc.co.uk/cymrufyw/ert...

Bangor university gives its vice chancellor a 13% pay rise then cuts dozens of jobs. Handing out massive pay rises while frontline staff face the sack is indefensible. @bangorucu.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

YFORY: Dydd Iau, 12 Mehefin - 2 yp, Cofeb Ryfel Bangor, Ffordd Deiniol - Rali UCU Bangor yn erbyn diswyddiadau gorfodol. Ymunwch â ni! TOMORROW: Thursday, 12 June - 2 pm, Bangor War Memorial, Deiniol Road - Bangor UCU Rally against compulsory redundancies. Join us! nation.cymru/news/lecture...

If staff are asked to propose reduced working hours & job sharing in order to save money & keep their jobs, it is only fair the same applies to the university executive. According to the annual report, 13 "key management personnel" earned a staggering £2,820,000. 🤯 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Os gofynnir i staff gynnig oriau gwaith llai a rhannu swyddi er mwyn arbed arian a chadw eu swyddi, mae'n deg bod yr un peth yn berthnasol i reolwyr y brifysgol Yn ôl yr adroddiad blynyddol, enillodd 13 o "bersonél rheoli allweddol" swm syfrdanol o £2,820,000 🤯 newyddion.s4c.cymru/article/28693

Prynhawn da, Bluesky! Rydym yn hapus i ymuno â chi yma Good afternoon, Bluesky! We are happy to join you here!
