“THE game has changed,” University and College Union (UCU) leader Jo Grady warned universities yesterday as she announced that members have voted to take national strike action over pay, job security and pensions.
The union smashed Tory ballot thresholds in both disputes subject to a national ballot.
“The UCU has become the first union in the education sector to win a national ballot since the introduction of the anti-trade union laws in 2016,” Ms Grady announced at a special press conference at the union’s London HQ.
