Professor, Sheffield Hallam. Key interests LGBT+ identities, SRE/RSE. Author of book on LGBT inclusion/bullying in schools + https://t.co/kTEJ3rklav
Joined March 2010
Excited + daunted in equal measure! Just signed @EmeraldEdu book contract on #HBTbullying + #LGBTinclusion in schools. I think largest known study on this in England to date (over 62,000 respondents). Have to do justice to large-scale + rich data!

Seems completely wrong for UK govt to commission research on LGBTQ equality issues from @kesiareeve & @EleanorFormby and then to just sit on it for five years. Well done to @senseaboutsci for raising this - story from @jgro_the

You can’t believe how kind the British are. Every morning, a van pulls up outside your house in Coventry. A friendly man brings you a freshly-baked flatbread to eat. It’s just for you,not anyone else in your family. Every afternoon he comes back to make sure you’ve eaten it. 1/

Watch Joanna Cherry huff and puff, roll her eyes, and mouth “what rubbish” when @KirstySNP talks about a trans constituent of hers talking about suicidal ideation. This is disgusting and heartless behaviour from an elected official! 😠

Tomorrow, a woman in England will be sentenced for ending her own pregnancy. The maximum sentence she could receive is up to life imprisonment - the harshest penalty in the world. We need abortion law reform now. Report from @HannahAlOthman in today’s @thetimes
