In one year, the number of Brits seeing the US as a threat to world peace has doubled

US strikes only delayed Iran’s nuclear progress, says intelligence report Leaked assessment casts doubt on Trump’s claims to have ‘obliterated’ facilities

This is how you get distorted intelligence assessments, where dissenting analysis is deterred or suppressed. Hegseth: “anyone who says the bombs were not devastating is just trying to undermine the president and the successful mission” www.ft.com/content/023c...

I missed this post last week as I was busy falling down & fracturing my arms & ankle (!) but pleased to finish Z before the accident

Huge thanks to @mybisa.bsky.social for the support. I’ll add some comments from the public below, academics should def do these things more

As Duterte was arrested last week, my former co-author @euanraffle.bsky.social wrote a thread. I posted a video about his arrest on TikTok & had around 70 angry messages from the public in the Philippines telling me Duterte is the best leader the country has ever had. Says a lot about populism.

Thank you to @mybisa.bsky.social for the on-going support. I think the series has had around 500,000 views across all platforms & I’d be happy to run a public engagement workshop for those interested.

Nothing to worry about, I'm sure.

Humbled. For those interested in the data. Q for Queer Theory generated 4,600 views on Instagram with 39 comments.
