Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 02/03/2026There's plenty wrong with UCU right now. This hearing should shed some light... 001
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 27/02/2026Enough of this appalling situation. #HandsOffMarie 010
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 19/02/2026It's time the members of our Union made their voices heard and put a stop to this. Solidarity with Marie and @uniteucu.bsky.social 011
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 13/02/2026Please read this important post by @lucyburkemcr.bsky.social . I, like Lucy, will not be silenced. #UCU is better than this. As a union representing workers in post 16 education UCU has a great responsibility to behave democratically transparently and ethically. 1/2 131
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 12/02/2026It's beyond disgusting that #UCU has threatened members of #Unite UCU, in effect union busting. 201
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 06/02/2026Members of UCU have no good reason to trust its elections. Read why here ⬇️ and maybe attend the Certification Officer hearing on the 10th. Hearings are held online anyone can attend. I hope the press will be there. 020
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 04/09/2025This cannot continue. It brings UCU into disrepute. Solidarity with @uniteucu.bsky.social #ReclaimUCU now 042
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 04/09/2025This is beyond appalling. A union engaging in union-busting. All TUs should be calling on UCU to cease and desist, and settle with @uniteucu.bsky.social for the sake of the movement @tuc.org.uk @yourparty.bsky.social #rReclaimUCU 056

Reposted by Marian Mayer Wil Hardman @wilhardman.bsky.social · 12/06/2025Deeply ashamed of my union behaving like the bosses we fight. Imposition, victimisation and union-busting needs to stop right now @ucu.org.uk. Solidarity with UCU Unite staff ✊ 11313
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 22/05/2025If you are a #UCU2025 delegate attending on behalf of @UCU members you really owe it them to educate yourself and the membership about what ails our union. It isn't the hardworking staff. Please be there 011
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 17/05/2025For UCU Congress delegates please consider supporting this motion. Please remember there will be survivors in the Congress hall and to be sensitive. It's not a lot to ask and I shouldn't have to ask but past experience tells me I need to. 121
Marian Mayer @marianmayer.bsky.social · 02/05/2025This dispute can easily be resolved. @ucu.org.uk should be an exemplary employer, not this. Members expect better 020
Reposted by Marian Mayer Alison Phipps አሊሰን @alisonphipps.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Of course she has won. Of course they were wrong. And at a time when other Scottish Universities were calling for an immediate ceasefire. They could have just picked up the phone to their colleagues. This is not hard. And then there is international law too. They put a brave woman through hell. 211541
