Trust in the @BBC is taking a hammering. In my @ABCaustralia interview with Suzanne Hill, I explain that while there are things the BBC can fix, there are other things out of their control. You can hear the full interview here: https://t.co/i3BczwtJQn

Resident doctors are striking again. My research with @MartinEjnar shows strikes by medical workers have high levels of public support, shaped strongly by trust in the NHS and political identity. Right-leaning and Conservative voters are less supportive. https://t.co/2eKqe0o7aq

Honoured to see our UK-Japan https://t.co/6aZIfdHKkg research (with @MartinEjnar & Yosuke Sunahara) cited in the House of Lords report "Is working from home working?" https://t.co/lX1Nay9LNH The inequalities in who can work from home matter just as much as productivity debates.

Tim Davie and Deborah Turness have resigned from the BBC. Our data suggest this moment has deep roots: trust in the BBC has become divided along political lines. The BBC's challenge isn’t managerial; it’s cultural and political.

Tim Davie and Deborah Turness have resigned over complaints of institutional bias but external perspectives on the broadcaster are far from uniform.

Is it ok for politicians to use AI? @TomTugendhat has made his views clear to fellow MPs, but what about members of the public? That's what my colleagues @MartinEjnar, @sunaharay and I find out in our new research. https://t.co/EUos0W18O5

The public feel ok about some uses of AI in parliament, but they’re very opposed to it making decisions.

Would you trust politicians to use AI to help them with their work? What about a robot making decisions for them? My colleagues @MartinEjnar, @sunaharay and I found out in our new publication in Parliamentary Affairs! @HansardSociety https://t.co/9RiU3GzlMJ

The BBC is a partisan battleground, but Japan's NHK isn't. My colleagues @MartinEjnar, @sunaharay and I find out why in this piece for The Conversation. https://t.co/GMHhfwygEw

The BBC commands middling levels of trust overall, but those levels are deeply polarised.

Our new paper on who trusts the BBC vs NHK finds that while UK Conservatives really don't trust the BBC, there is no partisan divide in trust for NHK in Japan. https://t.co/SxcUfregjB @MartinEjnar @sunaharay #MediaTrust #BBC #NHK #UK #Japan

Before trying to persuade people to eat more seaweed, it’s important to understand the reasons they aren’t eating it already.
