The senior leadership team at @edinburghuniversity plan to cut staff expenditure by £90m, which is more than 10%.
This would mean about 1 in 8 members of staff losing their jobs. With hundreds of jobs already lost, a further 1,000+ jobs are on the line.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.
I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

Last month, I warned that proscribing Palestine Action would result in the mass criminalisation of people who are not even members of the group.
Now more than 500 people have been arrested.
I voted against the proscription. We shouldn't be conflating protest with terrorism.

Bluesky. Am looking for recommendations for folk/traditional albums coming out in the next month. Not singer-songwriter records, but music that uses traditional folk songs or traditional instruments to make something interesting/intriguing/magical, from anywhere in the world. Thank you!

They didn’t just send Abrego Garcia “back to El Salvador”, they sent him to a fucking torture prison.
They didn’t send him “back to where he was from.”
They sent him to his death.
They cannot prove he was a “terrorist”.
They took him by “mistake.”
And they do not fucking care.

Montage of clips of Trump “guaranteeing” that he will end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours of taking office, that “it wouldn’t even be tough” for him to do, and that “everyone will be happy” with the end result.

Mad free-for-all on university numbers has:
*Weakened incentives at A-Level
*Threatened most unis' financial health
*Bulldozed STEM outside top 15
*Caused huge geographic cold spots in HE
*Made many cities' property markets crazy
Apart from that, great. 🤷♂️ www.thetimes.com/article/e569...
