🚨 NEW: The Green Party have successfully won all four of their target seats, despite an original exit poll prediction of just two

The turnout was the lowest since 2001. The combined vote for the two main parties was the lowest since WW2. Labour’s vote is down 6.3% from 2017. The Tories have suffered the biggest rout in their history. Hardly a ringing endorsement for the main options given to the electorate!

New blog post from me. I wanted to write this after seeing a lot of the discourse around the discrepancy between Labour’s vote share and seats won. This discourse has centred on whether this discrepancy meant Labour’s election result should be considered a success or a failure.

Domestic abuse spikes 26% when England plays, 38% if they lose, and 11% the day after, win or lose. Women's safety is at the mercy of men who can’t control themselves over a football game. Yet women are labelled emotional and crazy.

Just sayin.

New blog I wrote with my brilliant student Pauline El Khoury ! We look at Macron and his alleged feminism. We instead argue that both at home and abroad, Macron's government co-opts and represses feminism -- which feeds into a regressive, gendered authoritarian neoliberalism.

Do the thugs who rioted really not see the irony of ‘protesting’ multiple stabbings by bringing knives and rioting?

Don’t mess with Scouse nans

This!

Shame on this country - It was never about anything other than racism and hatred.

Proud of you, Brum.

Manchester pride was wonderful, right up until this morning when I walked down a street with my partner (we weren’t even holding hands, not that it matters) and a man stopped, looked me dead in the eyes and spat on the ground at my feet. Pride still matters.🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #ManchesterPride

Coffee, crying, and anxiety
