At the end of @NTEUUniMelb’s massive week-long strike, we’re calling on Duncan Maskell to join us at the table. And we’re going to the @CSL AGM to invite him…

A tale of three strike actions: NTEU members disrupting inside, outside, and outside the outside of the VC’s Roadshow #unimelbstrikes

Today marks the start of my second week-long strike at Unimelb this semester thanks to management failing to deliver anything meaningful in bargaining, particularly regarding casualisation. #Unimelbstrikes

The University of Melbourne is a flashpoint in the wave of industrial action against job insecurity, wage theft, overwork, and profit-seeking in the academy. Now staff are preparing an all-university strike — and the outcome may be decisive for the sector.

I'm unfortunately stuck at Unimelb tutoring today, but solidarity to all my colleagues again on the picket line fighting the relentless attacks on working conditions at Swinburne #swinburnestrike

What a beautiful morning to be on a #swinburnestrike! See you outside the UN building at 11am and get ready to show this out-of-touch VC that our working conditions are not on the bargaining table. ✊

I really love teaching for so many reasons. It’s a joy. And it’s extremely frustrating to be unable to do my job thoughtfully and well because we simply are not paid to do it properly. Solidarity with @NTEUMonash for today’s #MonashStrike 💪✨

It's overdue! Staff at @MonashUni still wait for a new enterprise deal after almost a year of management stalling. @NTEUMonash members are striking today for Real Pay Rises | Secure Jobs | Fair Workloads. Join the rally at Clayton Campus today, 12pm!

Have been stuck teaching at Swinburne today so haven't been able to attend the pickets, but continued solidarity with the #unimelbstrikes and also colleagues at the #rmitstrikes.

Followed up #swinburnestrike by heading back to #unimelbstrikes for a teach-in and a union screening of (appropriately) 9 to 5.
