Journalist asks the leader of the UK’s University and College Union if she’s pregnant!
“Journalists should be asking me about picket lines, not parenthood. The only reason a journalist will be asking me right now if I’m pregnant is to make the largest fight back in UK higher education appear to be about my hormones.”

@sabinaleonelli Nice article!
"University administrators...invest more in the glitz and less in the grit; more in the shiny things you see on the surface, less in the people doing hard work to keep it all afloat.
Academic pay has fallen by 25% in real terms since 2010, while workloads have soared. A survey of thousands of staff last year found that they now work, on average, two extra days a week, unpaid."

UK University Strikes:
"Universities have built a business model that relies on people who care, continuing to do things for free, whilst also paying them 25% less than they did in 2009 and constantly attacking their pensions."
Jo Grady, General Secretary of the University and College Union
