Massive Free Palestine rally in Naarm today - the front was already at Flinders Street before the union contingent had even left State Library. Proud to join and march with NTEU comrades for an end to the two-way arms trade, genocide, ethnic cleansing and occupation. ✊🇵🇸

It was my great pleasure to join and deliver a keynote address to students at Saint Ignatius College last week as part of a Local Parliamentary Convention on the Australian Constitution and whether it is fit for purpose or obsolete. Thank you to all involved for having me.

It was a pleasure to join, reconnect with and meet new members of the @apsa-pop.bsky.social community this week and present papers on political systems and extreme polarisation (with Narelle Miragliotta) and the Greensland phenomenon in Brisbane (with @phoebehayman.bsky.social and Stewart Jackson).

Graduation day today! Got to don the floppy cap and sit alongside the big wigs. Thank you to all who supported me through my PhD - you know who you are!

Very fortunate to be in Walyalup (Fremantle) while Wardarnji is on and to see local Noongar mob celebrate and share their culture

Very lucky to be in Perth and attend @anthroprofhage.bsky.social's Australian Anthropological Society Conference keynote. He begins by describing a shift in Jewish contributions to western society from local globalism (as cosmopolitan leaders) to global localism.

In WA early for APSA Conference, and being my first time here, a trip to Wadjemup (Rottnest Island) to see the quokkas was a must! If you're attending and interested, I'm presenting a paper on internationalisation and party responsiveness on environmental issues on Tuesday.
