Newcastle says no to fascism.
The far right brought a hundred or so with them, bussed from far and wide. This city turned out 1000s, from local communities, estates and streets. Geordies of all backgrounds coming together and outnumbering the purveyors of hate by some distance.

I did it! Sir Chris Hoy’s Tour de 4 in Glasgow was wonderful. The rain was biblical and Tak Ma Doon was a brutal climb but the support was fabulous. I’ve raised £1535 for the gynae cancer research charity The Eve Appeal. Thank you. The link in my bio is still open if you’d like to donate.

This is right on the money.
Last week on Wonkhe: The postgraduate population is growing, but there appears to be less interest in regulating this area of higher education, much less how equitable outcomes are. Katharine Hubbard asks the sector to pay more attention
Why aren’t we addressing inequity of outcomes for postgraduates?

Thank you for giving me the chance to talk about it.
Fantastic talk at @edreslancaster.bsky.social from @sallywelsh2003.bsky.social today, who spoke about the particularly gendered and class dimensions of the (lack of) value of mature students' care work, and how this was magnified during Covid lockdowns.
The recording will be available soon!
