They’re at it again: lecturers call second day of strikes
It’s another day off for students as staff walk out over pay
Feckless lecturers are booking in a day of Christmas shopping for December 3 as they call a second day of strike action.
Having already gone on strike over pay once this term, uni staff are set to walk out next month if the current “pay row is not resolved”.
University staff to walk out again on 3 Dec if pay row not resolved. @UNISONinHE @unitetheunion & @ucu will this time be joined by @EISUnion

Last month’s strike fell on Halloween, so after the frightening strike comes the festive one as profs look forward to Crimbo.
Students, who were generally too drunk to notice last month’s strike, will enjoy yet another day off as staff call off lectures and tutorials.
Unison, Unite and the UCU will also be joined by Scottish education union, the EIS, for the action

Lecturers’ trade union, the University and College Union (UCU), has called the strike, and will be joined by union heavyweights Unison, Unite, and EIS, Scotland’s largest teaching union.
