Frozen (but) solid! Update from Strike Day #2…and UUK ask for “talks” (23 Feb 2018)

It was a tad chilly on the picket lines today. But the picketers remained cheery and determined to do whatever it takes to defend their pensions.

Later in the day, UUK said they would talk with UCU on Tuesday but  “talks would not re-open the Joint Negotiating Committee decision made on 23 January”.

Not sure what will be discussed then because that decision is the very reason staff are on strike.

Strikes remain on Mon, Tues & Wed next week.
