Really saddened to hear about the potential closure of archaeology at Sheffield University. This department has had a huge impact on the 'unearthing' of Sheffield City's heritage. Solidarity with colleagues in the Department.

Not only is my PhD student not getting examined but co-authors on a paper about to submit do not want my affiliation on it due to

So due to the global
#UCU boycott of University of Leicester my PhD student will not get examined now, as the external pulled out. I hope that the University goes to the table and this gets sorted out before any more repercussions for our students emerge. -

Some members don’t like factional arguments but this debate about transparency has to be had. You can’t claim independence when it’s a lie. Members deserve honesty. Whether you agree with my politics or not, I’m transparent about what they are.

Let me make it perfectly clear. I will never support the bogus use of academic freedom, wielded as a weapon of oppression. Don’t expect a reply to that email.
