Ah Portugal, Portugal 😢

Presenting at @lse-ei.bsky.social today - all welcome (so I am told!) Thanks @benbraun.bsky.social and @donatodc.bsky.social for the invite! www.lse.ac.uk/european-ins...

Looking for people to bug about an application, came across this _reality_ check from copilot

🚨Last few days to submit to PEEP - the 4th Political Economy of Europe APSA Pre-Conference. We (@awiedemann.bsky.social @gemmadipoppa.bsky.social @miguelpereira.bsky.social and I) look forward to reading your submissions and to see you at Harvard on Sep 2nd! Submit at the link below

Another great episode of this podcast on political behaviour research - this time with @miguelpereira.bsky.social and his important insights on political elites

Will it be national news? Will it cause performative outrage? Will he be censured? Nope. Forgotten by tomorrow.

🚨 JOB ALERT 🚨 We're hiring a Teaching Assistant Professor in Comparative Politics! Come join a great department: unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/312... I'm on the committee, so send any questions my way. #polisky #academicjobs

He studies how political elites behave and decide - and why they can be out of touch ! On Politically In/Sane, Dr @miguelpereira.bsky.social (LSE) explains the gap: elites hear a skewed public, social media adds noise, and citizens underestimate governing constraints. Listen 👉 pod.link/1851725697

Had a really nice conversation with Sarina Sharma-Welsh in this podcast about studying elite behavior and political representation. I definitely prefer writing, though :)

🎙️ New episode out on Politically In/Sane ! Why do political elites so often misread the public -- and what does that do to democracy? In Ep. 4, we talk with Dr. @miguelpereira.bsky.social (LSE) about Political Elites and their blind spots ! 🎧 shorturl.at/ok4Nv @lsegovernment.bsky.social

I don't know how much we can learn about immigration policy in other countries from a local election in Denmark that had nothing to do with immigration. In a survey conducted by Epinion (n = 102.897) integration was the second least important topic (out of 13) for voters in this election.
