One year since the publication of my first article!
Still proud of this, and happy that people read and engaged with it. Also, still can't believe I was invited to Zaragoza to present to the PRISMA conference about this topic.

Last week, I attended the TUC LGBT+ Workersβ Conference 2025 in London, a key event in my year. The conference passed motions defending trans rights against rising transphobia and combating the far right. Itβs vital the trades union movement sees LGBT+ liberation as a key to the workersβ movement.

Travelling to Belfast for #BISA2025 tomorrow, and excited to be presenting my research about international queer solidarity in this panel on Thursday:
Finally have a (very rough) full first draft of my thesis! Exciting!!!! Now to begin redrafting π
Amazing to have run such a good workshop with @erinmcnally.bsky.social surrounding interdisciplinarity within International Relations. We heard from some amazing PGRs within the department, talking all about how their research relates to the ways in which we define the discipline of IR.
My presentation, titled βQueering International Relations, Queering Disciplinarityβ examined the ways in which queer theory and writing on queer IR can change the ways in which we do IR.

I am genuinely horrified by last weekβs ruling and by the governmentβs response to it. Trans people will always be my comrades and my siblings, and we must stand together against this transphobia. To my trans friends, I am so sorry this is happening, and I stand with you in rage and solidarity βπ³οΈββ§οΈ

It has been amazing working on these two events with @erinmcnally.bsky.social around disciplinarity within International Relations. We will be exploring disciplinary dilemmas in IR, and how postgraduate research in the department can help to define IR. Excited for the workshop and mixer in May!
Happy birthday!! x Hope youβre having a wonderful day x

Super excited to be on the new episode of the Queer(y)ing Asylum podcast, discussing what a queer international solidarity means, and the problems with the framing of the UK as a 'neoliberal haven'. Please do give it a listen
Thank you so much @thediegogarcia.bsky.social for having me
