- Reposted by Laura Loyola-HernándezThe @timeshighered.bsky.social has reported that @ewanmg.bsky.social and I have applied to the Certification Officer regarding concerns over the 2024 UCU general secretary election. UCU has characterised this as “smearing”, via a spokesperson. www.timeshighereducation.com/news/jo-grad... /1

- And that's a wrap on UCU Congress 2025 and also my time as the Migrant rep on NEC 🥲 I'm also stepping down from being part of the Migrant Member Standing Committee. It's been an honour to have help set up MMSC. I wish I could have done more. And as for NEC never again... 😅

- Solidarity @uniteucu.bsky.social who are starting 20+ strikes given ongoing dispute with employer (UCU). Our union (UCU) is in an ongoing dispute with their own staff. Embarrassing to say the least. Awful to see same tone & messaging VCs use vs us when we strike used to undermine striking UCU staff
- I'm so close to reaching my target✨ I'm running the Manchester Marathon in April to raise money for Doctors without Borders🏃🏽♀️ Can you help me reach it! Doctors without Borders do amazing work bringing medical support across the globe. Click to donate ⤵️ www.justgiving.com/page/laura-l...

- Reposted by Laura Loyola-HernándezJust the sheer, obscene spectacle of a Government minister on £160K+ plus expenses and all the freebies, coming for the sub £10K per year that my son gets in PIP - being autistic & learning disabled in a deeply unequal, discriminatory & hostile society is not a “lifestyle choice”
- Reposted by Laura Loyola-HernándezTotally agree with this. Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a deportation; it's something else entirely.
- Barely on this site, hardly check it. If you'd like to connect around organising for migrant rights, community work, alternatives to policing email me. I am still on Twitter more regularly than here One reason not on here is toxic union behaviour which has moved on this platform 🙃
- Exciting to share my new OA article in Third World Quarterly ! I use cyborg movidas -the collective embodiment of political manoeuvres influenced by emotions such as rage & love- to understand how feminist activists engage in protest as a technology of resistance doi.org/10.1080/0143...
- I'm doing a charity run in April! Running the Manchester Marathon to raise money for Medecins sans Frontiers. I've almost reached half my goal. Can you help me reach it 😅 (it's my bday today 😉) Link to donate ⤵️ www.justgiving.com/page/laura-l...

- Every so often I log onto this site and I have very random followers which are bots, even more than Twitter. I thought Twitter was terrible but this site is worse...
