An amazing event, thank you to @DrMaxPolitics for having me and my brilliant colleagues @robjohns75 and @JYDenham for their insights. Also, thank you to @sotonpolitics and @PRiggirozzi for hosting! And, most importantly, the super engaged audience with excellent questions!
Now @EmiliaBelknap is discussing the recent electoral fate of the #SNP and their rollercoaster rides at elections to both Holyrood and Westminster. Fascinating insights into big constitutional and political issues. #UKPW #SotonParliamentWeek

Excited to see my article 'Balancing Politics and Parenthood' in @EJPRjournal is out. In a UK study, I find that the public do not punish MPs for taking parental leave. In fact, for women there is some electoral advantage. https://t.co/kLHA7QQwyG
