Staff and students join picket line on first day of protest over pensions

HWUCU branch picket on first day of strike

There was a great turn out of staff and students on the first day of strike action even though it is reading week and the half-term holidays.

We will all be back again tomorrow and every day for the rest of this week, fighting to save all of our pensions. Please come along and join us if you can. We may even manage a celebrity visitor one of these mornings.

From the beginning of next week there will be further strike action to defend against deteriorating pay and working conditions.

If you can’t join a physical picket line you can drop into one of our online pickets. The first one is Tuesday 15 February at 9.30. Please check you inbox for details.
