All the best tweets about the lecturer’s strike so far
They’re only saying what we’re all thinking
The lecturer's strike is all anyone can talk about at the moment, and rightly so. We pay £9000 a year, and we deserve better than for the uni to allow a four week strike to happen. And I say uni, because at the end of the day, the uni has a lot of sway over this situation, and they could easily resolve.
As always, students have taken to Twitter to voice their complaints. So, here are some of the best tweets about the strike.
Standard Thursday morning
I really woke up for a 10am at 9.40 rushed with all my strength PAID FOR UBER, looking like trash, all for my lecturer to be on strike. THEN [still looking like trash] as I leave I’m stopped to be interviewed about the affect of strikes on students. hehe ❤️

Time to get political
Good luck to lecturers who are striking for themselves, future generations and the whole public sector – democracy in action? It's important students and parents don't blame lecturers but the people who are forcing them to strike – #TheresaMay and the Tories?#USSstrike

Asking the important questions
Are the students going to get a refund this term on their 9k, given their tutors are going to be on strike for a large part of it? #bbcqt

As if uni wasn't stressful enough
I fully support my lecturers in their strike reasons but a 4 week strike when my dissertation is in IN 2 WEEKS is not the one…yes very much on the edge of a full break down looool pic.twitter.com/S5XIFRIbtV

The worst email you received this week
When your lecturers email you about the UCU strike and you get excited but the text reads 'I will not be taking part in the strike and my classes will therefore continue as normal' pic.twitter.com/tqTryhoAfk
