I’m immensely proud that today I unveiled our new LGBTQIA+ stained glass window in Belfast City Hall. This is hands down one of the highlights of my term as Lord Mayor, sending a powerful message that our city is an inclusive, welcoming city.

Last week @keir_starmer was asked about the UK’s ongoing supply of war plane parts to Israel. Starmer hid behind the US-run spare parts “pot” for the f35 which, somehow, insulates the UK from complicity in genocide We learned a good deal about this “pot” in our legal action 🧵1/

Hey Manchester - this is happening today at Queer Lit!

The scenes of starving Palestinians being forced to scramble for food aid, corralled into caged areas like animals, are so distressing to watch and further dehumanise people in Gaza, who have been stripped of all rights. Necropolitical violence beyond what anyone could imagine.

Made a super quick stop yesterday to watch this Ringed Plover brooding its tiny chicks - just too cute to resist! We've been watching this pair incubating since 6th May and it's brilliant to see them hatched at last. Fingers crossed for them all🤞

My book Queering Women Peace and Security is coming out this fall (Nov). Was thinking of organizing a book panel at #ISA2026 but considering other conferences too. I’ll be organizing some campus visits for a mini book tour so do DM me if you’d like me to come speak at your uni!

Sicily, Catania. The boat has arrived and preparations have begun to set sail for Gaza. @gazafreedomflotilla #breakthesiege

Stay safe, my friends. I am painfully aware of the risks you are taking on behalf of all of us—of Humanity. Diplomats & politicians around the world: The Flotilla Giants are taking the heavy lift. PLEASE make sure they are protected, will you? This is the least you can do.

Our community is everything, and we're celebrating sisterhood by being loud, proud, and outspoken in our support for ALL of the amazing women around us. 💥 🔗 lgbt.foundation/EHRC #ThisIsWhatAWomanLooksLike #ThisIsAWoman #PrideMonth2025 #InclusiveFeminism #EHRC

It's out 🎉😊❤️ In 'Teaching to say "no"' (published now in Teaching in Higher Education (TiHE)), Dr. Jamie J. Hagen 🍉, Lewis Turner & I build on decolonial, indigenous scholarship to discuss how university teachers can teach their students how to refuse to engage in harmful research. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Oh hello Blondie 😍 This special little one stopped us in our tracks this morning - a Golden Hare leveret! Exciting to see this new generation appearing now, maybe there are a few more blue-eyed babies around the island to spot 🤞

BREAKING! British Medical Association passes 3 motions 1️⃣Criticism of Israel is not antisemitism 2️⃣Medical professionals have a right to advocate for their colleagues in Palestine without threat of punitive action 3️⃣Unequivocal condemnation of Israels attacks on health service

More of today's encounter with one of Rathlin's world famous Golden Hares - luckily a small gap in the undergrowth was just enough to watch this special blue-eyed leveret

Zohran Mamdani’s father is renowned scholar Mahmood Mamdani. Some 20 years ago, as a poor grad student, I bought his then-new book 'Good Muslim, Bad Muslim' & met him at a talk where he kindly autographed my book after some banter about being unruly comrades. I’m so glad

It was a real privilege for me to be in Geneva for the launch of the Graeme Reid report on LGBTIQ people in situations of displacement at the UN HRC. I was thrilled to contribute to the report and support the work of the mandate. See the presentation here: youtube.com/watch?v=jDnlnI…

Hey, ISA EISA you see this? How shameful that you haven’t done this yet.

Also arriving late on the scene are the Fulmar chicks, which have been appearing since 30th June. It's hard to get a glimpse as the parents keep them well hidden at this stage, but just occasionally one peeps out to say hello
