CAUGHT IN THE CRUNCH: The Surveillance State Comes to Your Local Supermarket
Walk into any Coles outlet today and you're not just buying milk. You're feeding a surveillance machine processing 10 billion rows of data through Peter Thiel's Palantir Technologies.

UCU responded to the King's Speech by calling on the government to ensure that workers are prioritised, and its New Deal for Working People is not diluted.
UCU general secretary Jo Grady said the commitment to phase out zero-hour contracts is welcome, adding 'thousands of staff members working in post-16 education on precarious contracts will want to see this enacted as quickly as possible.'

University of Cambridge college supervisors have won an average pay rise worth 15% as a result of Cambridge UCU's 'Justice for College Supervisors' campaign. College supervisors lead undergraduate tutorials (or 'supervisions') yet many are precariously employed and paid an hourly rate.
Cambridge's colleges have now agreed new rates that will result in a pay rise worth 15% on average and over 20% for some supervisors.

A new report by Oxford University UCU has highlighted endemic casualisation and poor working conditions at the University of Oxford.
The report finds that 66% of academics employed by the university are employed on a fixed-term contract (the national average is 33%). And once marking and preparation time is factored in, the pay of hourly paid workers often amounts to less than the National Living Wage.

UCU condemns the decision to wrongfully dismiss a lecturer on a fixed-term contract while advertising a new permanent post covering his duties.
The University of Sussex must reverse the plans and offer him the post.

We've had a significant win against casualisation after Sheffield Hallam University agreed to move associate lecturers off zero-hour contracts.
The agreement goes a long way to addressing the insecurity of zero-hour contracts and inequalities between associate lecturers and other members of academic staff.
