Replying to @DrProudman
She wants to turn the shame around. Every one should view the evidence so no man can pretend ignorance.

Real talk
Universities are sitting on £40,000,000,000 in reserves. Just 3% of that would settle our pay claim. Don’t listen to anyone who tells you the sector can’t afford to pay staff properly. It’s a lie. @DrJoGrady on @BBCNewsnight: #ucuRISING
Staff and students call on Council to investigate the case for gross misconduct. @GoldsmithsCS @GoldsmithsUCU Council have a case to answer! we-are.gold/2022/11/21/lette…

The managers at @GoldsmithsUoL took the roof off to repair the cracks that were not even there. @lazebnic and Gholam tried putting something up to stop the rain from coming in. And they are suspended! Blimey! #BringBackDesAndGholam!
We Are Goldsmiths retweeted
Please read and get behind the campaign to reinstate Des and Gholam! And please also come along to the midday rally today at Goldsmiths. We need everyone’s support.
Senior Management have removed the Head and Deputy Head of Media, Communications and Cultural Studies in a baseless attack. Please read & sign the letter of protest, and share widely.
Please sign this open letter to the warden of Goldsmiths who is in the process of destroying the place. openletter.earth/reinstate-d…

The job cuts in @HistoryGold were sponsored by 'Academic Portfolio Review sponsor' @ElisabethLHill, a failed academic with NOT EVEN ONE single-authored monograph. Why was she allowed to assess the qualifications of staff in History? @GoldsmithsUCU

'We are beyond solidarity. We are filled with rage at this sexist, racist & violent institution'. The brilliant @SaraBafo1 speaking at the Goldsmiths rally to protest unjustifiable staff redundancies #GoldStrike #NotOneJob #ResistanceIsNotFutile

This is a fight for the survival of HE #SolidGold
#twitterstorians This fight at @GoldsmithsUoL is a fight for all of us. If you're only learning about this now, take some time to inform yourself.

Senior Management have left themselves nowhere to go. What kind of conversation are we able to have with our leaders when they won't be there on the other side? #SolidGold

Another world is possible | This is what solidarity looks like @StudentsAtGold #SolidGold
Beautiful and emotional speech from Black British History student, @paulaakpan. 🧵 Vid 1/2 on how her lecturers (@seefryar and @hannahelias) and professional staff (@NevenkaMartin) have consistently put students first.

We are in solidarity tonight. We will fight in earnest for @GoldsmithsUoL #GoldStrike
@FCorner, @ElisabethLHill and Co. have just lit the match and sent out redundancy notices to colleagues in ECW, History and Professional Services. We will continue fighting the vandals who are wrecking @GoldsmithsUoL. This fight is not over. By a long shot. #GoldStrike

Reasons to vote YES YES in the local ballot to save Goldsmiths from any more chaos 1. To oppose the current round of redundancies, 2. To fight future cuts in depts, 3. To engage in a marking and assessment boycott & resist CCR, 4. To give our negotiators the strongest leverage 🔥

#GoldStrike day 35. Students from GoldPaper Mental Health Working Group gather testimonies from staff and students about the devastating impact that @FCorner 's disastrous restructure is having on their mental health. To add your testimony, see the email address in the image 👇
Why is Fr. Corner, Elisabeth Hill & other corrupt managers still at @GoldsmithsUoL ? In Nov. 2020, staff passed a motion of no confidence in SMT (an absolute majority of 50.2% of all votes). If they have even a shred of decency, they need to resign @GoldsmithsWe @GoldsmithsUCU
Good question
Why have @stonewalluk awarded Goldsmiths 'bronze award for LGBTQ + inclusion at work' when @FCorner is destroying queer studies in the History Dept? Baffling, the double speak of institutional social justice. goldmine.gold.ac.uk/NewsEven… @GoldsmithsWe @GoldsmithsUCU
