LECTURERS from universities across the UK are to be balloted on strike action in a row over pay.
Some 70,000 members of the University and College Union (UCU) are being asked to back action unless there is an improved pay offer from employers.
The dispute has arisen after the Universities and Colleges’ Employers Association (Ucea) made a final offer of two per cent following talks in May.
The UCU said the offer failed to address the falling value of salaries in higher education pay, which they argue have declined in real terms by 21 per cent since 2009.
