Thanks to so many students, @StrathUnion, @OccupiedStrath, the DJ at the pub quiz, the bagpiper, the saxophonist, those supporting the pickets, the bakers, the workies at Lord Hope, @joannagoodbite, the mature student association, various dogs and children and @NUSScotland.

Over a dozen occupations have come together to debrief, discuss what went well and didn’t with direct action in the past four weeks, and have discussions together across campuses. Loads of great ideas so far ! @ucu #USStrikes

I've just resigned as external examiner at the University of Bath. Thanks to @DrJoGrady and @ianpacemain for raising awareness of inhumane treatment of Bath students during their occupation of the VC's suite. @UM_UCU @UCUBath @ucu #ucustrikes #USSstrike

Recap: @UniofBath blocked entrance to the only toilets available in the occupied area. Access to sanitation was used as leverage to bring an end to a peaceful protest. For 21 hours, 10 students, 4 of them female, were forced to urinate in plastic bottles in full view of security.

When university staff took the brave decision to go on strike, they knew it would mean losing pay. In response to this, students have put together a fund to help - an incredible showing of solidarity. Give what you can for @StrathclydeUCU: youcaring.com/strikingstrath…

A University without staff & students is merely a row of shiny, metallic buildings. The last few weeks -including your occupation of TWO buildings- have shown the need for destruction of the neoliberal agenda for higher education.Teaching must come first; profits are incidental.

Spending time with the students of @OccupiedStrath and of @UniStrathclyde is equally as important as any other act of industrial action. Strathclyde UCU & students have now developed strong and robust relationships that will serve us both well when demanding improved conditions.

In times like this you cannot assume a neutral position. It does not exist. Support the UCU or collaborate with UUK. Your choice. #NoCapitulation
