The UCU has announced that more than 70,000 university staff will walk out in 18 days of strike action in February and March
UCU general secretary Jo Grady said in a statement that strike action would now be “escalated”.
“The clock is now ticking for the sector to produce a deal or be hit with widespread disruption throughout spring,” Ms Grady said. ‘University staff dedicate their lives to education and they want to get back to work, but that will only happen if university vice-chancellors use the vast wealth of the sector to address over a decade of falling pay, rampant insecure employment practices and devastating pension cuts. The choice is theirs.”The union also warned that strike action could continue well into 2023.
