This does seem like the obvious conclusion with the UKHE Covid class action. If students didn't get the teaching they paid for, their degrees are academically invalid and that's what needs fixing. (You'd hope their current employers would agree.)
Yeah, quite key: it's not £21 million that is going directly to those 6500 students...
The only ones winning anything (other than maybe £2000 per student) are the firm raking in the £7 million and the people keen to crash universities.
Grim day for #UKHE.
Oh I am very sorry to hear this, and thinking of all of you at SSEES.
I mean I'm not sure I actually knew what he looked like before this and from the looks of him being colonised by immigrants would do him the power of good

This is not true. The overwhelming mood in the Lab selectorate after 2019 was wanting to vote for a slicker, more managerialist Corbyn, and that is how Starmer presented himself. We would be in a much better position now had he followed through on this.
I see Starmer had a productive weekend grappling with his conscience then
...so you still *feel* precarious/ECR even if you no longer count as such; but also many ppl who got the permanent job while still ECR but now find there's no upward movement into the professoriate, partly because SL to AP movement within institutions involves stringent/unachievable grant targets
I think maybe two aspects to the problem - firstly as the OP says a growing cohort of academics who are already counted as mid career by the time they actually achieve permanency (often at unis where they had a long series of FTCs, so permanency comes through the HR/continuous service route...) 1/

Good for them. Hope all well with you too. A bit snowed under with teaching but almost at reading week - hope to be in touch soon about journal stuff!
Seconded
Three of those four things seem positive, am glad to hear of it.
Always enjoy when you follow the advice and put your local radio station on because there's an extreme weather event in progress and they're just playing eighties dance classics as if nothing's happened
Hope you're planning to keep the intro/hype music from the last emergency pod.
you can’t kill an ideology: manchesterism lives!! the people demand burnham thought
If shock troops were firing tear gas at random people in Walthamstow all day then, yes, I do think I'd find it within myself to deploy the five or six clicks of a mouse that would be necessary to order a gas mask online, yeah.

This is good news especially because Dawlish has nightmare roadworks at the moment, with near gridlock at peak times. If the Exeter/Torbay train commuters were forced to drive to work instead, it would get unmanageable pretty quickly.
Teignmouth and Dawlish after the storm yesterday, one missing part of its pier, the other with newly acquired holes in the sea wall. Thankfully the damage was superficial, the new sea defences held up, and the trains will be running again later today.
Somewhat remarkably, the trains through Dawlish are running again today (the intercity ones anyway).
I think you have misread the above as an Andy Burnham fan post (it isn't).
Ah yes, the struggle against Corbynism that left us with five years of Boris and Liz Truss. Glad you're no longer my MP.
Certainly the case here that management are only interested in catering to students who do use AI, and seem totally uninterested in the (anecdotally, very large number of) students who don't want to touch it with a bargepole for all sorts of reasons.
