@Ashley_Walsh Hard agree—can we get some figures on how many MPs are “labour”, ie are dependent on their salaries rather than deriving secondary income from capital/assets
This course is such a joy to teach and produces amazing student work every year.
I run the “Bodies Politic” module which explores various kinds of connections between political writing and bodily identities in this crucial period.
Please consider applying!

Good thread. One could also add that the sums of money granted to individual projects are tiny in the context of STEM research budgets and wider university sector: we’re doing major research with small change.
