New paper out now witten with my brilliant collaborators @jamcjo.bsky.social and @drowendthomas.bsky.social. Hard to write given the topic and ongoing injustice but hope it proves useful to others.

Nice to see the article I wrote with @drowendthomas.bsky.social and Victoria Basham on Keir Starmer and the juridification of politics being used by Chris Mason to frame their analysis of the recent meeting between Starmer (Mr Rules) and Trump (Mr Break the Rules) www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The prime minister and the new president of the United States are rather different characters.
