Special delivery from the postman today: author copies of my new book. Absolutely delighted with the way it’s turned out. It’s partly a history of learning disability, partly a philosophical exploration of the reciprocal relationships between learning disability & personhood. #learningdisability
The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.
Will we listen to his words today?

Rally to defend jobs at Liverpool Hope 28/6. Colleagues are giving up their Sat to recruit students,while bosses tell them they may sacked. UCU are holding this rally to support them and to tell the University that there should be no job losses at Hope.
No Staff, No Hope!
Powerful open letter from Liverpool Hope #DisabilityStudies students/grads in response to proposed redundancy of the ENTIRE DS team: DS "is not just an academic discipline but a lifeline. [Tutors] bring lived expertise, intellectual leadership, and care that cannot be replicated elsewhere"
This is so important - there are very few universities in the UK with dedicated disability studies centres, teams or degree programmes. Losing this specialism at Liverpool Hope would be a huge loss of national significance in that respect.
Powerful stuff. The entire Disability Studies team at Liverpool Hope University are facing redundancy. Students have written this open letter in response. I taught many of these students & feel their pain. #disability #disabilitystudies #SaveHopeDisabilityStudies docs.google.com/document/d/1...
