British university academics and staff members are being balloted for strike over pay, pensions, and working conditions, which union leaders say would cause “enormous disruption.”
Members of the University and College Union (UCU) will vote in the next few weeks on whether to go on strike, causing concerns that students’ learning would be impacted again just as face-to-face teaching resumed after the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which was caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
