Really delighted to have made this list, and so grateful to have had the opportunity to tell the stories I’ve been included for: the 30-year fight for justice for Nikki Allan, and the impact of deepening health inequalities on individual lives.

For SWANA speaks I spoke with the brilliant aya about her new book These Olive Trees, what she wishes people understood about being Palestinian, and the joy of discovering old family footage: swanaspeaks.substack.com/p/14-we-talk-a…

Insightful piece from Aurelien Mondon on the mainstreaming of far-right ideas. Using words like 'populist' over 'far-right' and 'racist' legitimises the likes of Wilders, Milei and Farage: theconversation.com/look-to-the-ma…

Interesting paper from Dr Emilia Y Belknap and @merylkenny on party feminisation in Scottish parliament over time! Some progress being made but parties in Scotland need to do more to integrate women facing intersecting marginalisation: link.springer.com/article/10.105…

Thanks so much for reading and sharing, Parisa! Yes, progress has undoubtedly been made in some descriptive contexts. Yet, ultimately, there is more work to be done through intentional actions from parties!

Benjamin Zephaniah was one of the few proper radicals in the public sphere when I was growing up. His poetry and his media presence was a beacon to those of us who couldn't abide the neoliberal consensus. He'll be profoundly missed.
