    This is an important & insightful message to members from our (equalities, pay, workload & job security) negotiators. Please take the time to read it. My thanks to those who put it together for all the work they do.

    (esp. UK), Is part-time working viable given unsafe workloads & workplace pressures? Do you know of anyone or anywhere that's made it work? Is it possible to pass probation on a part time contract given the mountain of probationary demands? Asking for a friend...

    The occupation of Palestine is illegal. Settlements in Palestine are illegal. Palestinians have the right to return. Palestinians have the right to a viable state. And the struggle for freedom, justice & equality will prevail ✊🏽

    As a Jew & antiracist I reject requests to 'take me to your leader' & those who claim to be it. This is offensive to Butler & racialised communities who face the normalisation of racism by politicians & media, & fails to und racism, antiracism & the diversity of the Jewish comm.

    Five more years of Tory rule is almost enough to make me despair. But we can't despair. Because if we do, then the climate emergency will become the climate catastrophe. In my maiden speech, I called for a Green New Deal to escape disaster capitalism – and build socialism.

    “Right-wing and far-right movements and political parties across the world also idolise Israel as they view the Zionist colonial project as a successful model of European domination over the indigenous populations of developing countries.”

    Today 250 million workers across India are taking part in a general strike called by 10 trade unions, supported by 175 farmers organizations, 60 student groups and many more. This will be the largest strike in history. There is power in the Union ✊🏾✊🏿

    oppressing staff: "The University reserves the right to withhold 100% where staff only provide partial performance; any work that staff do undertake will be done as a volunteer and without any right to be paid."

    It must feel really great to sit in a meeting with other university managers and come up with hard-nosed and instantly gratifying pronouncements like this. So much more satisfying than teaching and research

    OFC as the articles and note, the necessary dismantling of capitalist infrastructures doesn't follow. The capitalist class, and their liberal enablers, remain wedded to the apocalyptic socio-economic models that birthed this and countless other catastrophes. /5

    It would need empirical testing, but it seems people are beginning to realise the apocalyptic conditions of the contemporary moment now that a rich, predominantly white settler colony is being so impacted. /4

    I teach a course on apocalypse that aims to Historicise contemporary climate crisis. I am unsure how to process the fact that responses to the conditions in Australia are referencing apocalypse. I think this is somewhat contradicts recent article. /2

    Every time I look at this story, it gets worse. This is climate dystopia, literally happening in front of us, and it’s scarcely been reported, still less become the subject of a global emergency.

    Happy New Year to all my friends that have kicked over the statues in 2019, inspired me, mobilised & built the movements to resist the far right, fought for climate justice, stood against capitalism & recognised all our struggles are all connected.

    The forest fires in Australia & USA shatters one more liberal illusion about action on climate - that once impacts were felt in rich countries the political elite would agree to radical transformation. They prefer to burn rather than threaten neoliberal capitalism & their profits

    The impacts of climate breakdown would be much less harmful if we had collective, rather than individualistic, societies. And the worst impacts of climate breakdown would likely be averted cos there would be no super rich who depend on current systems of energy use.
