Just spoke to @euronews.com about the Trump deal to end the Gaza war. Here are the main points I made 🧵:
1. Trump should have formally brought in the Palestinian Authority as part of both the negotiations and the implementation.

Very excited to share this year’s Ronald Dworkin Colloquium lineup.
@ucl.ac.uk has been running this series in legal & political philosophy since 1998, when Dworkin founded it. Still going strong.

Yesterday we celebrated @jowolff.bsky.social remarkable career. Hard to put into words, so here’s a glimpse of the standing ovation that closed the day. Love, admiration, philosophy at its best. Days like this remind me why we do what we do.

Hilo Glazer of @haaretzcom.bsky.social interviewed me last week about Israel’s shifting political landscape — polarisation, political competition, and the rise of what I call the ‘hollow’ centre.

It has been a while since I enjoyed a book in political theory this much. @jonathanpjwhite.bsky.social's "In the Long Run" is beautifully written, insightful, and full of fresh thinking on political change, imagination, and ideology - all through the lens of the future. Go read it.

Had a lovely time presenting at the PPE series at Senate House yesterday (organised by the wonderful @elisewoodard.bsky.social). Judging by the photos, I may be overdoing it with the hand gestures... But truly, it was a lively and generous discussion—many thanks to all who came!

Had a fantastic time presenting my paper on competition over ideas at the University of Reading's Department of Politics and IR seminar today. Great questions, brilliant company—and a slightly blurry, weird-ish picture to top it off!
