8 years without you ❤️💔❤️🩹 #ForeverDaddysGirl
This massive 8-year-old used to live in my belly 😳 Happy 8th Birthday my little drummer boy ❤️
Read our full statement on the dangerous weaponising of women’s safety and our condemnation of far-right actions: womensaid.org.uk/womens-aid-res…
Addressing the crowd, Dr Louise Raw, author, historian and founder of Survivors Against Fascism talks about the hypocrisy of the far right
Get involved in the campaign: Women Against the Far Right. Take action here: actionnetwork.org/forms/get-invo…
I'm attending a event: Women Against the Far Right - Campaign Launch. RSVP here: actionnetwork.org/events/women-a…
Anyone who claims to care about the safety of women and girls should probably be donating to @womensaid rather than getting worked up into a populist frenzy outside hotels

Three fantastic days in one of my favourite places! Had a great time at #SHSConf2025 with some fabulous people. Thanks to Meredith at @ManchesterUP for the book that I have been eyeing up for a while 😀 @BCLivingMuseum @socialhistorysociety
A fantastic second day at #SHSConf2025 - presented my paper so I can relax and enjoy everyone else’s research tomorrow 😀 Luckily this bus gets me close to home 😂 @socialhistsoc @BCLivingMuseum
The quietest I’ve ever seen @BCLivingMuseum - behind me are dozens of hungry historians queuing for their chippy tea @socialhistorysociety #SHSConf2025
Really looking forward to this next week 😀
Happy Father’s Day to my wonderful Dad, who I miss every day 💔 and to Matt, who is an amazing Dad despite the fact that he has ordered a drum kit for our 7-year-old #ForeverDaddysGirl
Decided my laptop sleeve was too boring #womeninPHLEGM
My husband has signed our spawn up for his first drumming lesson 😩 your thoughts and prayers are appreciated during this difficult time 🥁
