I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight

My reaction to the Government's White Paper on Post-16 Education and Skills. As it pertains to universities, it's a total botch that somehow manages to both raise fees and hack everybody off. The worst of all worlds, a bit like the rest of Labour's offer. Do have a read if you're interested. 👇
And don't miss the Rethinking Internationalism online workshop on 5-6 Nov on 'Blindspots and Buzzwords in Internationalism', with a fantastic lineup of speakers. Sign up here www.eventbrite.com/e/blind-spot...

TLDR: Actively courting deportation by air is a way to claim rights as a stateless person and even as a refugee.
