I had so much fun chatting to @SussexPolitics students about my time working in government (before a midlife crisis brought me to academia!)
I hope they went away with some useful info about the civil service, as well as lots of anecdotes about Larry the cat... 😼

Much love and gratitude to them and everyone fighting for a world free from the symbols and enduring structures of slavery, racism and colonialism #BLM #DropTheCharges
Austin the Activist and @budgekaty campaigning in support of the #Colston4 today. We should PAY them for taking down that statue FFS. Thanks to Rose Morelli from @bristol247 took the first lush shot!
I'll always remember the day colston fell as the day I fell back in love with my home city #gladcolstonsgone

Huge thanks @LyndseyStonebri - it's largely your work on Arendt et al (and your @IALS_law talk on placeless people) that inspired me to explore the historical context of responses to movement and displacement teapawt.net/LyndseyStonebri/status…
