PGRs at universities across the UK are demanding the support they urgently need. 🔥 An end to low pay 🔥 Stipends that keep up with inflation 🔥 Extra support for those who need it, including self funded, disabled & migrant PGRs Sign the letter NOW 👇✍ docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
📢 Campaign launch! 📢 PhD students are already overworked, underpaid & struggling. Now, amidst a cost of living crisis, we face a real terms pay cut of over £1000. Please sign our open letter to UKRI demanding PGRs get the support they deserve 👇 bit.ly/UKRIStipends
@PandemicPGRs do your thing! 👇

UKRI to consult on increasing support for postgraduates: Research funder considers boosting support amid rising inflation and cost of living. @sophie_inge @UKRI_News @UCUPostgrads @PandemicPGRs @Akirbyreynolds researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-res…

Because I don’t want a real-terms pay cut of £800 on my already low stipend!

📢 PGR emergency mass meeting this Friday 📢 PGRs Against Low Pay It’s no secret. Low pay is the biggest issue facing us today. The cost of living crisis is biting and large numbers of PGRs are saying enough is enough. Sign up 4 Fri@ 1pm 👇 forms.gle/evVJDoeji442jf…
That's right, we're getting the @PandemicPGRs x @UCUPostgrads campaigning going and this time PGRs have got more experience, better networks and more resources PGRs Against Low Pay 🔥

Union publishes wish list for ‘new deal’ for postgraduate researchers: PhD campaigners call for better support for marginalised postgraduate researchers in response to consultation. (£) @sophie_inge @ucuPostgrads @ucu @UKRI_News @Akirbyreynolds @elmunro researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-res…
Agree 100% with this response to the @RussellGroup report in response to UKRIs new deal for PGRs as staff. PGRs already carry out many staff duties such as teaching/supervision and equipment maintenance for free or cheap labour @PandemicPGRs @UCUPostgrads

The group representing the UK’s top research universities has argued against treating postgraduate research students as staff, saying it is not in their interests. @RobinBisson @RussellGroup @PandemicPGRs @ucuPostgrads @ucu @nusuk @ProspectUnion researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-uni…
📅 27 MAY, 2 PM: J4CS RALLY 📅 On 27 May, our reps will make the case for a pay rise, paid training and secure contracts before the Senior Tutors Committee at Clare College. We need 200 workers supporting them outside the College. RSVP here: bit.ly/3yrRTUW
Why be public about the elastic splitting? Because I agree with many @PandemicPGRs that it if (be an option) classed as an employee could have safeguarded/equity the pipeline with pay above poverty line, childcare,holidays etc. #grateful supervisors/dept have been supportive
One of our PGR pals has got in touch to ask if we know of any examples where PhD researchers get paid for their time/contributions to university committees, meetings, etc., commensurate with staff. Have you got an example you can share to help them build their case? #PhDChat

PGRs struggling under multiple categories of inequality over the past few years & trying to be ‘productive’ under covid has pushed people off the pipeline/edge-groups have not been supported substantively since covid- excellent to see the UCU publishing a report @PandemicPGRs
@AnshBhatnagar_ @calebmorganday and @SapphicSauce are firing up @UCUPostgrads national campaigning (@PandemicPGRs style) and we're demanding a pay rise for PGRs It's not them who are going to win this, it's you and your fellow PGRs Come along and find out how!

Really pleased to see this joint statement, which newly elected national negotiator @cupofassam had a hand in securing. Very reassuring to know the national negotiations will be in such safe hands in the coming year!
Another exemplary local @USSpensions agreement, this one between @leedsucu & @UniversityLeeds. Brief🧵on some positive things that stand out. 1/
Agree 100% with this response to the @RussellGroup report in response to UKRIs new deal for PGRs as staff. PGRs already carry out many staff duties such as teaching/supervision and equipment maintenance for free or cheap labour @PandemicPGRs @UCUPostgrads
@ResFortnight @RobinBisson @RussellGroup @PandemicPGRs @ucuPostgrads @ucu @nusuk @ProspectUnion HAHHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHBAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHABAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAH
@ResFortnight @RobinBisson @RussellGroup @PandemicPGRs @ucuPostgrads @ucu @nusuk @ProspectUnion Who does the 'their' refer to here?
Why be public about the elastic splitting? Because I agree with many @PandemicPGRs that it if (be an option) classed as an employee could have safeguarded/equity the pipeline with pay above poverty line, childcare,holidays etc. #grateful supervisors/dept have been supportive
What I had stupidly forgotten: a #BoycottResearchFish campaign launched in the UK in 2021, aimed not at @Researchfish itself but at @UKRI_News's indifference to doctoral students dealing with Covid/lockdown disruption. x.com/pandemicpgrs/s… researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-res…
PGRs are making daily requests to @UKRI_News to engage with our community’s highly reasonable and evidence-led requests. UKRI continue to demonstrate a callous lack of willingness here We are therefore calling all PGR’s to boycott ResearchFish this year #BoycottResearchFish
Remember when @PandemicPGRs called on everyone to boycott research fish? 👀
Well this is disgraceful behaviour. I guess my optional submission this year will be treated with the level of respect they show to researchers on here. @STFC_Matters @UKRI_News I suggest using a new platform for people funded by yourselves.
@PandemicPGRs While it continues to be optional i am definitely not filling it out! (the emails always get lost in my spam folder anyway)
📢📢Want to campaign with PGRs locally, but don’t know how? Keen to improve your organising and get a serious win? Wish to feel invigorated, learning with/from incredible peers? Join us for the next @rls_organizing course and spread the word: forms.gle/yqDQcyU1qio7T5… Details🧵
@kizzythechemist @UCUPostgrads @PandemicPGRs Also make it consistent across the country. Why do some get paid quarterly? I would struggle to budget quarterly.
This is a good day to highlight one under-discussed demand within the @ucu 4Fights claim, which is of huge importance to PGRs: A national GTA (or equivalent) agreement! 🧵🧵
let me tell you about the 17-year-old songwriter who turned a TikTok comment into a #1 single with 100 MILLION streams… …in 100 days 👇 1/
We say that there aren't enough jobs in academia, that it's just "too competitive". But when nearly every employed academic is out there working 60+ hours/week, I have to ask - are there not enough jobs, or are we trying to make fewer jobs to keep most people out? 1/2
So much #solidarity to our fellow education workers as @ucu members resoundingly vote yes to #strike action to defend pensions & demand secure, stable work! We'll see you on the picket line! x.com/ucu/status/145…
🚨BREAKING🚨 76% of UCU members have voted in favour of taking strike action over USS pension cuts In just three weeks we have delivered a strong, unequivocal YES vote and an overall turnout that beats the Tory anti-union threshold 💪 #OneOfUsAllOfUs ucu.org.uk/article/11857/…
The voting turnout at QMUL was 46.4% 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ a shy lower than the 50% legal minimum required Disappointing isn't it? But, amongst those of us who voted 83.3% were prepared to go on strike action
