This is what democracy looks like—students and staff refusing to be crushed under corporate greed. Cardiff University’s cuts are an assault on knowledge, and today, knowledge fought back.

Cardiff Uni is subtracting the future, dividing opportunity, and multiplying disaster. Cutting maths? That doesn’t add up. Let’s solve this equation before it equals collapse. When the best minds in the world tell you you're making a catastrophic mistake, maybe... listen?
Top world mathematicians warn @cardiffuni planned cuts 'could "spectacularly backfire" & 'risk collapse of maths infrastructure in Wales' @CardiffUCU @campaignmathsci

Wales has a proud history of language and culture. To strip modern languages from our capital’s university is to diminish the place of Wales in the world. Education should be expanded, not cut. We can’t let this happen. #SaveCardiffLanguages

Cardiff this weekend, the Welsh National Opera protest cuts to their funding during performance. Their protest is a reminder: culture belongs to the people, not to the accountants & bureaucrats who see art as a balance sheet. Their fight for opera is a fight for democracy itself.
Chorus members protest against cuts to Welsh National Opera during the curtain call for the Marriage of Figaro in Cardiff tonight. Orchestra players wore t-shirts throughout, calling for the opera company to be protected. @WelshNatOpera #wnofigaro @theCentre

Billionaires hoard wealth in the UK while universities cut music, the arts, the very soul of education. The suits have decided that music isn’t “profitable” enough. Students, musicians, workers—let’s stand together. Join the flash orchestra and chorus protest!

A nursing shortage in a struggling Welsh NHS—and the solution is to cut the @cardiffuni course training the next generation of nurses? That’s madness. Students fought back today. Support them. Healthcare depends on it. (Photo credit: Rhydian Witts)

Private Eye today shines a light on Cardiff’s cuts. Music and the arts are not luxuries—they are liberation. We fight because creativity is a right, not a privilege.

The Museum of Cardiff was nearly closed by Cardiff Council in 2023. But history isn’t theirs to bury. A campaign by Cardiff People's Assembly & Civic Society rose, voices loud, feet marching. The people saved their story. Now, Grangetown speaks. Listen:

Power to the people! Cardiff Uni staff have spoken: Vice-Chancellor Wendy Larner has failed. Cardiff University must listen. No more cuts, no more attacks on staff & students. Put education first. Now we unite—workers, students, community and unions—to reclaim our university!
📣📣Cardiff University Mega-Cuts update:📣📣 In a packed (400+) @CardiffUCU meeting Over 300 staff just voted to move forward with a vote of no confidence in the @Cardiffuni University Executive Board (UEB) and its Vice Chancellor Prof Wendy Larner. #CUFightback

Governments do not cut education because they have to. They cut it because an educated public is harder to manipulate. This is not just about universities—it’s about democracy itself. We must build a broad coalition to stop this attack on our future.
