My new piece for @LSEpoliticsblog Looking at the legacy of Iraq in the current US-Iran conflict and the UK approach to the conflict @lsepoliticsblog.bsky.social @lseusablog.bsky.social @york.ac.uk #Trump #IranlsraelConflict #Iraq blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandp...

Trump's strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and apparent willingness to get even more involved in the Middle East has started a split in the MAGA-verse. Here's my take on why this is emerging and what it means #Trump #Iran #IranlsraelConflict blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/20...

Very happy to see my book "The Road to War in lraq: Comparative Foreign Policy Analysis" on show at the @mybisa.bsky.social #bisa2025

🇪🇺 Brexit gave the UK the freedom to diverge from EU regulations 🤔 But why has regulatory reform proved so difficult? 📺 Find out next week with @jreland.bsky.social @jillongovt.bsky.social sky.social @drsarahhall.bsky.social @dgbailey.bsky.social & Neil Ross👇

@chrisfeathers.bsky.social has published his first book; The Road to War in Iraq: Comparative Foreign Policy Analysis. You can find out more here link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

Great to speak to @france24.com about #Trump and #Meloni meeting to discuss the #TrumpTariffs #Meloni has taken role of EU-US bridge, and #Trump admin seems receptive, but looks unlikely it will result in anything. She did avoid potential pitfall on Russia Ukraine

Great to see our ✨ ‘Joy of the Teaching Track’ ✨article is now out. Thanks to all co-authors especially @drcathyelliott.bsky.social for inspiring and leading this project. @mlebourdon.bsky.social @polstudiesassoc.bsky.social @journalpolitics.bsky.social

New article by @chrisfeathers.bsky.social on The Critic is out today: thecritic.co.uk/britain-shou...

My new piece for @TheCriticMag argue that the UK has to seize the opportunity to finally put the "Special Relationship" myth to bed, and stop expecting more from our US Allies thecritic.co.uk/britain-shou... #Tariffs #TariffWar #TrumpTariffs

The UK managed to avoid more painful #tariffs, but the UK approach to #Trump seems to be focused on future negotiations. Problem is, the #Trump admin has said there won't be more talks, and there's little pressure on them to really talk with the UK

My new piece for LSE US Politics blog. Looking at the tariff announcement as the epitome of Trump's approach, and how European leaders can deal with him

One thing that really stands out from the 417-page document that the #UKGovt has published on potential targets for UK #tariffs is just how many agricultural products they have identified as targets - well over 30 pages! (Yes, I am boring enough to have read part of the list)

Great to speak to @france24.com about the #TrumpTariffTradeWar This announcement has shocked US allies, and unified the EU agenda

Because the #signalchat wasn't mind-blowingly stupid enough! www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
