A big thank you to David for visiting Northumbria Law School and sharing his research!
on strike again with @ucunorthumbria.bsky.social this week - Uni executive have walked out of talks and are going to go ahead and cut our pay and pensions, in whatll likely only be a first move in a 'post92' race to the bottom!
It's another digital picket for @ucunorthumbria.bsky.social - great turnout here 😺

I learned a lot and met many fantastic people. I was especially happy that my fellow Human Trafficking Research Network Steering Group colleagues Dr @dayoakin.bsky.social and Dr Maria Turda were also invited to speak.

We are on strike because we don't accept the "choice" between a pay freeze (& being taken out of national bargaining) & being forced out of the teachers' pension scheme.

My presentation looked at trafficked persons' asylum claims and what they teach us about the protection needs of other irregular migrants, and the limitations of existing legal frameworks in that context.
