Great to teach the first class on my new module: Law in the Culture Wars this week! Really looking forward to discussing the impact of so called 'culture wars' on legal institutions and frameworks with students over the next 10 weeks.

And, since I know Zack sometimes reads my posts, I want to be really clear: this isn't an attack. But your impulse to seek affirmation is going to undo everything. You need to get real. Irrespective of the merits or the motion, the party is at the eye of the storm and you are its leader. Lead.

Also liking sub tweets about journalists is giving them another thing to report on. Stop it now. The leadership needs to get serious about the situation at hand or consider their position.

Being asked if Israel has a right to exist is an entirely predictable outcome of Zionism is Racism being passed and both Zack and the press office should be prepared. This is going to be every interview for the next 6 months. It is simply not tenable to try and ignore or wait out the question.

Congrats to all for a great campaign. So sorry it wasn’t enough this time, but tripling our vote share was huge. On Zack’s next steps - his leadership has led to huge party successes. I hope he can now bring same leadership to help resolve huge issues we face & transform our internal structures too

While focused on this by-election, he has shown lapses of judgment and leadership. But we also need to be balanced and recognise that we wouldn't even be in a position to compete without the transformations the party has seen under his leadership.

On the one hand, 33% in a Westminster by-election was unthinkable 2 years ago. We must not lose sight of that. On the other hand, it's disappointing to have stood our leader and thrown so much resource at things and to fall that far short. The next few weeks, and how Zack responds, is crucial.

In other words, a 10 percent contraction in one of Britain’s most successful exports. If it were steel or fish or other infinitely less profitable sectors, people would be having a meltdown.

Of course my first teaching day of the academic year is the first properly cold day we have had in months 😭

Just trying to look up my teaching room ahead of my 9 am this morning. Not too hard you'd think. After all, it's 2026, British railways would never have dial up speed internet that needs to load an image line by line...

To Jewish members of the Green Party: Assurances, from the motion proposers, that they had no intention for Jewish members to feel targeted for their beliefs or associations have been clear. And if anyone else does try to use it in this way, I will be there for you with my solidarity and support.

I am deeply saddened that the "Zionism is Racism" motion has passed.
