Australian universities have been abandoned by the government and are facing huge losses. You can read my piece on how financialisation helped cause this mess at @OverlandJournal.
Autonomy, including financial autonomy, is essential if our universities are to operate as critics and conscience of society. COVID-19 has bleakly exposed the inadequacy of their dominant corporatised, profit-driven governance model, writes @lyndang. overland.org.au/2020/09/wher…

The most Christmassy of Australian birds. A red-capped robin. (Not at all related to the northern hemisphere robins, btw.)

The #USElection2024 is a timely reminder that for all its faults, Australian democracy is a model for the world. ➡️ Independently administered elections ➡️ Voters can list their true preferences without throwing away their vote ➡️ Compulsory voting ensures all voices are heard.

Devastating, short-sighted and shamefully irresponsible announcement by @UOW management today of 135 proposed sackings, including whole teaching departments such as history. All the while the VC is a partner in a consultancy firm reviewing the university’s operations. @NTEUnion
