Lovely day out in Leeds for the half marathon, starting and finishing at Headingly Stadium. Much cooler than last year but the sun was out, and the great people of Leeds gave fantastic support.

My Bluesky has been very quiet, which I’m going to try to rectify… Part of the reason is that I have been finishing my next book The Governance of Migration in the EU. It will be out with OUP later in the year, with some Portuguese art on the cover.

Finally, the farce is over — but we must never forget the tragic death of Albanian asylum seeker Leonard Farruku and the countless others who attempted suicide onboard the Bibby Stockholm. The plan was dehumanising and it should never have been implemented. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024...

Hello and thank you to all new followers! My area is EU law/policy and external relations, particularly migration and sanctions. I’m completing a book on the Governance of Migration in Europe and ‘Formal Informality’… which means I should be writing and not on social media..
