Does anyone have an up-to-date version of this mug? Which legends have been cast aside to make room for Boris, Liz, and Rishi?

Advice for scholars: next time you lecture on Kant and revolutions at “Downing” (@DarwinCollege) Cambridge, make sure your hair is neatly tied and that you’re not blonde. Or else your research impact will be on the @spectator libido section.
Is there a specific meditation for academics trying to make a simple booking on KeyTravel that takes a week and about 20 emails?
A classic of the ‘there is no such thing as true conservatism - but if we go back to Burke…’ genre.

This is very interesting from @EmilyJonesVIII on Conservative traditions, and c/Conservatism - always essential reading on these matters!

What has PopCon got to do with Conservative traditions? Here were some of my initial thoughts for @LSEpoliticsblog blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandpol…
Time for Emily to leave Paris. Thank you @SFEVE_ @UChicagoParis for a wonderful conference and to @Megan_Rose_619 @mtaylorhumboldt @JonParryHis @bronterre1 and everyone else for their excellent contributions. It was a blast.
Disraeli Conference, Paris 2024: We laughed (“Here leave we Vivian!”), we cried (the bad poetry), we considered D’s ideas on their terms: fantastical, juxtapositional, at times perfectly serious. Wonderful to see the field thriving.
We have been enjoying remotely attending the @SFEVE_ colloquium on Disraeli's lives & afterlives. Very interesting paper from @EmilyJonesVIII included cinematic depictions of Disraeli, while @DrDavidJeffery explored differences between Tory Democracy & One Nation Conservatism.
Today’s the day — Emily is in Paris! Message for Zoom links

Retweeting for the Monday morning crowd
So excited for our Parisian conference on Disraeli next week! 🇫🇷 I will be debuting some book material plus appearances from @JonParryHis @Megan_Rose_619 @bronterre1 and many more. A Zoom link will be available - message me for details. Please RT/share with interested parties.

In case you missed it yesterday, the @RoyalHistSoc has issued a very strongly-worded statement about the extensive cuts to the History subject area at Oxford Brookes University. You can read it here: royalhistsoc.org/history-at-oxf…
If anyone is after an invitation code to the other place, let me know.
