However what is critical is how the issues of this strike will be resolved. The positions of the University and the Union need to be heard and a resolution proposed. The length of the settlement is critical but will likely be one year to give everyone a time to cool off. It is nonsence to have tweinty five issues still on the table. The Union needs to get their concerns down to what can be negotiated. The University needs to retain those part staff that they need and have a chance to be hired on the full time staff. The rest should be informed that it is highly unlikely that they will ever be hired full time. You are not being honest with your employeess by keeping them around for fifteen yeats.

Even though 5000 students were allowed to go back through a "special" deal, they will still require York Main credits (aka credits from classes that are STILL on strike) to finish their year. Fun, isn't it? The most ridiculous thing about all this – are you ready?
