Glasgow trying to lose staff

Glasgow University is trying to shed staff in an attempt to reduce its £10.5m deficit. It's been offering voluntary redundancies for a while but so far only half have been taken.

If the redundancies turn compulsory the AUT union is threatening to "greylist" the university, meaning that members in other universities may refuse to cooperate with it. When that happened at London Met, external moderation got held up and some students are still waiting for their marks.
