Will Labour still be in crisis in a months time? Who knows! Regardless I’ll be taking part in this panel June 12th with @gsoh31, Emily Robinson and @McwilliamRohan and we will not be short of things to talk about. Do sign up!

Me in @spectator Labour must also unapologetically be a government of the left: the one that has given rights to workers and renters, the one which has nationalised the railways, the one which has refused – for the first time in 60 years – not to enter an imperial war with the US

@HCH_Hill I grant you that vivas for every assessment for student in every module would be impossible! But as far as I know that’s never been a standard part of the (wider) British or indeed North American university systems.

[Lise Butler @LiseRButler]

@HCH_Hill That thread seems mostly correct - but accommodations for disability etc. exist regardless of assessment type. I think the recent increase in exams has been a hassle for administrators at my uni, but a surmountable one.

How else are you going to learn anything??

Everyone wants to be an intellectual historian, but nobody wants to read primary texts.

[David Wingrave @davewingrave]

I have a story in the latest @nplusonemag. Kind of a morality tale about austerity, class, the pandemic, and contemporary letters' most taboo subject of all: the evils of trading cards. Many thanks to the great @lisa_borst for edits.

V. pleased to be in this latest issue of @RenewalJournal, writing on the false promise of “securonomics”.

[David Wingrave @davewingrave]

Copyedited this & so read every word 4 times & so can confidently say it adds up to a very serious piece of work on the ERA & the status of work in UK. Step away from the Westminster swirl for a second and read about legislation that actually affects your life.

[Frederick Harry Pitts @fhpitts]
