We are very sorry to learn of the death, earlier this month, of the historian, Professor Anthony Fletcher (1941-2026).
A Fellow @royalhistsoc.org since 1976, Anthony was a leading scholar of early modern England. Between 2000-05 he also served as General Editor of @vch-home.bsky.social #Skystorians
"It's impossible to be non-politicised in Cyprus after 1955. But once you leave and move to London, it’s television media, letters to your family back home…you know what’s going on. It’s traumatizing you." thelausanneproject.com/2025/12/12/p...
Delighted to have received my De Montfort University 35 year long service award. Thank you to all staff and students who have helped me on the way.
Despite anti-refugee misinformation, we see in our frontline services every day how refugees already contribute massively to the UK.

We know why people come to the UK: because they already have family here, they speak some English, or they have long-standing ties that help them rebuild their lives in safety.

New post on refugeehistory.org: were there refugees in 16thC England? Answer: it's complicated - migrants and the state were in the process of negotiating a form of refugee protection, which helps us to complicate notions of Britain's "proud history of welcome": tinyurl.com/bdyevr4d

Political dissent is a democratic right. People understandably feel disenfranchised by austerity & government mismanagement.
But violence & racism must never be tolerated.
My letter to the Home Secretary urges respect to be upheld & action against all forms of hatred.
