@WritersofColour@OtherSociology won't that affect post docs as well? Maybe rates have gone up, but 5-10 years ago I was seeing jobs at £30k
@elizabethwehner @WritersofColour So new proposal may not apply to postdocs. @DrHalfPintBuddy would you know? (See article & thread)

@DrHalfPintBuddy@elizabethwehner@WritersofColour Thanks for clarifying & for important point on professional & support staff (& others). -

@OtherSociology@elizabethwehner@WritersofColour end of the day this is about keeping foreigners out of the UK by any means necessary. -
@DrHalfPintBuddy@elizabethwehner@WritersofColour Xenophobia rife beyond the UK. "Migrants" (refugees EU) & "boat people" (refugees in Aus) -
@OtherSociology@elizabethwehner@WritersofColour also "swarms of" and "floods" as descriptors. The language is very telling!
