I just can’t get past Labour winning 65% of seats off 34% of the vote.

Absolutely wild mismatch between the headline result and, well, everything else.

Britain is now a multi-party system, and first-past-the-post can’t cope.

[Ṣẹ̀yẹ Abímbọ́lá @seyeabimbola]

To think clearly about ethics/justice in research, we must relax the false qual-quant distinction.

It’s a great disservice that the distinction is how many of us enter research.

It’s easy to fetishise a method (qual or quant) when we enter via methods (how) & not purpose (why).

"Hindutva influences solar development in ways that reproduce marginality and vulnerability of racialized groups burdened by the dispossession of land and resources for solar park development for the benefit of domestic and international firms"

[Ryan Stock @ryanjstock]

Solar coloniality compounds harms of climate coloniality. Analyzed through colonial racial capitalism, Hindutva drives dispossessionary solar development in Rajasthan against Muslims and Dalits. @BenjaminSovaco1

An innovative way to gather insights from attendees at the NIHR GHRG #arthritis meeting in Kilimanjaro, designed by human geographers Emma Laurie @TheWeeBarra & Jennika Virhia @Jennika23 @UofG_SBOHVM. A brilliant & well received concept 👏👏👏

Got valuable stakeholder insights how to use our upcoming training video to increase #arthritis detection in #Tanzania. Great exercise planned by Emma & @Jennika23. #UofG_SBOHVM #UofGSHW #KCRITanzania with @NateiyaY @emmasarahmac23 @furia_francis @sally_wyke @Chris_Bunn @blaymt
