In case you missed it, my latest article has been published in the new issue of Contemporary British History. It documents the links between the Br Conservative Party & Scandi Conservatives, as well as their roles in forming the European Democrat Union with Christian Democrats: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13619462.2023.2226061 #histodons #history #conservatism #christiandemocracy

Solidarity with my U.K.-based colleagues who are constantly out on strike just trying to secure basic working rights and conditions that we all take for granted over here in Norway. I hope university managers and the gov’t wake up and smell the coffee. Better late than never! #ucustrike #histodons #academia #highered

I think my Instance was down or compromised the last days, meaning I lost 60 new contacts when things rebooted. But I’m sure I’ll find you all again in time #histodons

@lscottspencer I see. But maybe I’ll get an update one day. Patience is probably a virtue here

@lscottspencer I seem to be having difficulty finding that option. Could be because I signed up to hcommons.social and not other instances? I can only log in via hcommons. Or because I use the Metatext App and that also doesn’t have the feature? No idea #followhashtags

@lscottspencer thanks!

If the bird site really is about to go down this week I really hope I can find more historians and politics scholars of modern Britain and Europe on here, as well as publishers and journalists with similar interests. Would be a shame to lose that community that I’ve relied on. Hope more sign up #histodons #britishhistory #britishpolitics #historians #history
