@DefenceHQ @grantshapps @AdmTonyRadakin_ I had the privilege of meeting the general a few weeks ago. An outstanding leader who exudes passion and interest into whomever she is talking to. I experienced the effect of “being made to feel like the most important person in the room” for the first time in my life.

@PhysioMorag Congratulations, I wish you the very best of luck.

@TerrorismPolice What would be the most efficient manner to contact your organisation for research purposes please?

@aj_noble94 Nobody introduce @ninja to @shoshanazuboff, I’m concerned about what it would do to the poor guy.

Been on TV over the past couple of weeks as part of the Sky History documentary series ‘Secret Wars Uncovered’. It’s on SkyHistory, Fridays 9pm. Unsure about the title ‘covert action expert’, but it may be better than the first suggestion which was ‘special forces historian’.

As a researcher who spends most days collecting data from right-wing platforms I thought it was important to capture how white supremacists are utilising the murder of #GeorgeFloyd to disseminate propaganda on #Gab and #Telegram 👇👇👇 #BlackLivesMatter #NoMoreNazis

@jgammon2 It’s the thought that counts! This brightened up my day no end, thank you for sharing.

War in Terror blowback. Militarisation of police force through equipment transfer, ex-military personnel, military training and techniques, targeted killings and violence as a solution, and a preemptive mindset of killing on limited evidence before threats materialise.

Great thread about meme culture and the far-right, and the meaning of those aloha shirts you may have seen armed protestors wearing in the US.

[Dr Chris J. Fuller @DrChrisFuller]

Interesting trend in dissertation acknowledgements this year, reflective of difficulties of study under lockdown, of @HistoryAtSoton students apologising to their families for monopolising dinning/kitchen tables, conservatories, and sheds in the completion of their projects.

[Dr Chris J. Fuller @DrChrisFuller]

Really pleased to see this policy brief by @HistoryAtSoton graduate @passey_katie published by @NextGen_50

It’s such a shame that we can’t have the usual photos of @HistoryAtSoton finalists proudly clutching your dissertations outside Avenue campus just before you submit today, but please do still post photos of your celebrations on ‘pressing’ submit. Well done to you all 🍾

[Peter Sturgess @Pres1ige]

@kaatewalkerr you would be amazing at this, it’s like it was written for you.

[Dr Julie Gammon 💙 @jgammon2]

Spending a lot of the weekend getting ready to start online teaching for @HistoryAtSoton students, after a useful Introductory week to help with transition. Nervous about what will happen but grateful for patient and committed students for bearing with us

@WongMinority @MilitaryBanter Having worked in them briefly I can vouch that a DCMH has a range of tri-service and civilian specialists - including clinical psychologists - available to patients.
