Over 70,000 university staff to strike at 150 universities across the UK

More than 70,000 staff working in universities across the country are set to go on strike in the coming months. A total of 150 universities across the country will face the impact of this latest industrial action.

The strikes will take place for 18 days over February and March. The industrial action is part of an ongoing dispute over pay, conditions and pensions, the University and College Union (UCU) announced.

Exact dates will be confirmed next week. The decision was taken by the union's higher education committee (HEC) which met today (January 12).
