Ready for our conference next week? We are! #contemporarychildandfamilylaw

Interesting (free) online & in-person conference with presentations on child abduction & children's rights. Hope the interface between those 2 topics is considered in depth, incl when courts directly undermine a child's right to be safe and cared for.

I don't normally write this sort of tweet but I am at the end of my tether. My PhD is funded by @ubeldtp part of the @ESRC and I have not received a stipend payment for 47 days. I simply do not know how I am expected to live on pay I received in August

[Rob Clucas @RobClucas]

@Jess_Guth Very sorry to hear that. All best wishes.

[Prof. Stephen Whittle OBE, PhD, DLaws, FAcSS, @stephenwhittle]

In court Jackson of (@LGBAlliance ) repeated “without sex there is no same sex attraction” implying trans & non-binary folk think there is only gender & not sex. Ironic as T&NB people are more aware than most of the realities of Sex & the sexed body. Sex has a massive impact …
