Can't remember the last time I saw Spurs win on penalties. Watching it with my daughter just made it extra special. After all our performances against City this season as well, this Cup run feels like it's history getting made Tottenham Hotspur Women

I've read nothing like this before—a painfully honest piece about the cruelty and patriarchy of academia, viewed through the lens of a grieving wife. Lang Chen remembers the last days of husband Xiaohong Xu, a brilliant, beloved sociologist from China who passed away at age 45.

Not just a nasty, sweeping slur but also factually wrong: international students support home students by helping to prop up the whole system and keep courses viable, as well as supporting much needed and welcome diversity intercultural understanding.

As Home Secretary says, this govt

'has allowed people to come to our society and live parallel lives..in society but not of it. And in extreme cases to pursue lives aimed at undermining the stability & security of society. We are living with the consequence of that failure.'

🚨“No research on a dead planet”

I’m thrilled to announce Dr. Laura Horn, Pauline von Hellermann 🌳🌴🌹🌻🌍, Dr Charlie Gardner & my new paper in Frontiers - Education.

I’ve been uncomfortable for a while now about Braverman’s hate being regularly on tv, knowing the impact it will have on lives & communities around the country.
