Why research staff and postdocs should fight for recognition #AllOfUs
Переглядів 333 роки тому
Adam Attaheri is here to tell you why research staff & postdocs should fight for recognition for #AllofUs - since the University of Cambridge wants to leave us out. ❌ "Do you think it's fair that we don't have a voice at the University?" he asks. "[At this] precarious time in your career, it's actually the most important time to be part of a group looking after your best interests." Convinced? ...

In memory of Jenny Marchant

It is with the greatest sadness that we have to announce the death of Jenny Marchant, Cambridge UCU’s branch president. Jenny passed away last Sunday surrounded by members of her family after being diagnosed last year with ovarian cancer. Jenny’s contribution to our branch over the last several years has been enormous. Never one to seek out the limelight, she became the quiet backbone of almost...
University Council membership hustings @CUCU, February 25 2020
Переглядів 1084 роки тому
There's an election for a space on University Council, and we need to make sure the winning candidate represents the issues that matter to our members. That's why we invited all four to attend a hustings in Great St Mary's Church. Council is one of the crucial decision-making bodies at the University. Voting is open from 17 to 27 February, but - in a typically archaic and exclusive move - only ...

Thank you for all of your support during the strike. Ours is one struggle of many in Britain in 2019, and your vote on Thursday matters more than ever. How you vote will help to determine the future of anti-trade union legislation, precarious employment, the Hostile Environment and PREVENT. On these issues and many more, please vote in solidarity. Whatever happens, we'll be back in 2020, and st...

Little England is what we should be if we hadn't become an Islamic country our lives we be so much better. So as much as i like BB's music he's wrong
Fugazi
That pro-Russian shit hasn't aged so well, brother. Send your money to Ukraine, if you have any to spare. No white people are sending any to Gaza.
Closest thing to Woodie we have out there.
LA LUTA CONTINUA!!
I used to hate it when Billy updated the lyrics of songs I loved to sing (badly) when younger. I’ve come to appreciate this modification, it shows intelligence and an appreciation and love for his audience ❤
Unoriginal as ever. Yawn.
Well there's a shock!! .. Billy Bragg at a strike! Something I thought I'd never see.
Good on ya Billy. Pity guitar went out of tune. Good man yourself.
That was Great, I saw you in the states well because that's the only place I've ever been other than Canada, Which worked out for me that time had I been off galavanting around the World I would have missed him when he came by. It really is the best system for catching live music. to have the band or artist do the traveling around and we just sit on our asses and fuss about how long it took to get to us. I'm actually very impressed with Your personal music. I only learned about you from Mermaid Ave. Which you were great on and I actually meant to get some of your music as I usually do. But I really think you up there with so many greats.
Top man billy 🙏🙏🙏
I think you need to see the lifestyle Billy preaches, and the lifestyle he leads.
Where is the conflict? Or are you a spokesman for the ruling class?
See the face of youth. Getting excited from his lyrics and energy. Power to you, Billy Bragg!
The real power of music and ballads is that it sparks off inquiry and enables people to read up on issues and events mentioned in songs. This is a powerful way of passing on a nations or a movements ideals and objectives. This is something that the Irish Republican movement, despite all its detractors, knows only too well. One has only to see the money spent by corporate advertisers and military formations to realise the sheer power of music to elicit passion and call to action in people.
Must say in previous jobs I have been on strike
Brilliant! Lovely! Wonderful! Great Update of Lyrics… Love the Man! Thanks for posting THIS!❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️💥❤️😝❤️🔥
a champagne socialist, putting down Trump, as soon as they got rid of him the usa are back to their old war tricks . Communism doesn't work Billy , still it's earnt you a living
How sad is your life that you are coming here as a non-activist/socialist? You actively searched or clicked on this video despite knowing you won’t like it.
@@jamesgodden3 i was actively searching bb music as i like it, although i don't agree with some of his views, i actually think most of it's put on to go with the act. How sad is your life that you have to phsycoanalyse my actions in the defence of a musician, what are you 12
@@rockgsxr yet you can attack him and not also be 12? Ok then…
@@jamesgodden3 hardly an attack, more of an observation. You need to calm down
@@rockgsxr haha stop trying to take take the high ground. You searched for BB’s music despite not liking him and then left a comment about it. That’s extremely petty behaviour.
After 40 yrs still peddling the notion that activism occurs at the ballot box. ...hope you can all see how ridiculous this looks after the last 2.5 yrs. No doubt he's still at it. The penalty for the big house out in the country is that one's work for the establishment is never done.
The best!
,,,,” do what you do.” can’t be more relevant than that. Thank you sir.
Brilliant how there are two young women from the 1980s in the frame. Solidarity!
Do you sing something against Putin now!?
I love those looks from behind
Billy is a world treasure! Plus he's playing my guitar!
Do you support medical apartheid billy?
Awful stuff. This politics is less popular than ever.
Yet here you were - watching this video and commenting! Sad Twat.
@@winnywin not wrong though am I?
@@lloydjames1787 Capitalism is at an all time low. So you are completely wrong. Marx was right.
@@winnywin 😂😂👍
All Marxists aspire to beachfront palaces. Ask Barack. $12 million beachfront mansion on Martha's Vineyard. Not afraid of the rise of the oceans from Climate Change. I guess his mojo will keep any flooding at bay, pun intended.
Billy Bragg. Real Estate mogul. Sold his beachfront mansion for a two million pound profit.
And your point is?
The man is allowed to be successful What's your point? It doesn't make him any less of a man of the people.
❤️🔥 done so well in the beauty of a middle key
Truth still Breaks a few of our hearts.
Hearts.♥️
Your guitar is so out of tune it reminds me of Pete Seeger. 🙂👍
Such a Beautiful, inspirational guy.
Thank you.
Where’s Bob? Crickets. Sad. But Thank you, Bill.
thanks i needed that
I love this man
respect for changing which side are you on boys to which side are you on to #represent the female riot police officers and corrupt politicians.
one of my favourite bragg performances
"There is power in a union." YES, YES, YES.
Solidarity Forever
✊
Fantastic Billy from a Cambridge resisdent love you always
Sad this only has so few views
I love how he removed the "boys" from Which Side Are You On here, to make it more inclusive :)
I mean yes its more inclusive, but i kinda liked how it filled the pause between "which side are you on"
Ours. He's always on ours. Viva Billy.
because that's what's important lol
@@rockgsxr It's not "important" but it's more **inclusive** and **that's** important.
@@pathduck i reckon your types are selectively inclusive, you won't give any time to anyone who doesn;t share your visions which doesn't make you inclusive at all ,that's why the left will eat itself
Brilliant
Great video, excellent stuff
Billy truly irrelevant in 2021
which side are you on [boys]?
hes removed it because the police force is now gender mixed.
I mean we all do our personal protests. Myself l, wrongly continued to call up the American Embassy on my private mobile line. Possibly Intoxicated. And.. Almost got Shot via SO19. It's the little things.
one leap forwards, two leaps back, lets all just give the tories the sack!
Good luck with that
Solidarity forever!!!!
Sounds great. Why aren't there more Billy Braggs in this sad world?
Because they're busy bragging.
They are all being brainwashed by Antifa. Like that Commie Tom Morello. Just kidding. Fuck fascism. Power to the people. Billy Bragg is brilliant.
@@rockmetalgoddess5009 is that a pun? Are puns funny in 2021? How did you come up with the dopey moniker? You're a rock metal goddess? Sure you are.
@@geyerbrad1 yes he is comrade.
Damn so sad that geet was so out of tune towards the end
Billy is firing on all cylinders here, it's beautiful to watch. He is an inspiration. The energy at this demonstration must have been incredible. Solidarity forever!
Billy should get a job :)
