Check out my opinion piece for @E_IR. I argue that Trump's diplomatic conduct has not undermined Diplomacy as an institution of International Society, but it has reminded us that it is constitutively contingent upon mutual practices. A 10-minute read! e-ir.info/2025/04/13/opi…

kieranjomeara's tweet card. Trump’s break with traditional diplomatic norms is a potential pivot point where new expectations and possibilities for state behaviour may emerge.

Amazing piece by @KeshabGiri_ for @E_IR where he argues that the voices of Ukrainian women, alongside gendered experiences, are vital for a just, sustainable peace. If there is one thing you do today - read this piece! Check it out! e-ir.info/2025/07/20/opi…

kieranjomeara's tweet card. Building sustainable and just peace rests on the inclusive recollection of painful events shaping the collective memory.

To end my week at the Wight archives @LSEIRDept, I donated this letter by Wight to Geoffrey Best describing The BCTIP as: “an odd chancy group: one is never quite sure who will turn up, nor who will have provided papers for discussion. But it is usually stimulating.”

Martin Wight’s 5 educational principles… 100% reading this verbatim to my classes this semester, just to see the look of horror on their faces after number 1… 😂

Hanging on to every word of @bbctms as I’m sat on West Sands Beach in St. Andrews with my book and picnic in the sun. I can certainly think of worser ways of spending a Sunday afternoon! 😂🏏📻☀️

Ahead of the expected proscription of Palestine Action - the first time a protest group has been legally redefined as terrorist - I went through the Hansard of the 2000 Act they're being banned under. Turns out MPs were assured the law wouldn't be applied this way. Thread 🧵🔽

As if @RobertJenrick ever cared about working people. He certainly didn’t when he admittedly acted to prevent @RichardDesmond having to pay potentially £45 million in taxes; or when @thetimes reported he had charged taxpayers more than £100k for "a third home" in his constituency

I obviously hope that Rachel Reeves’s personal matter is resolved. It’s never nice to see someone upset. The PM had a chance to support her at PMQs but threw her under the bus. Right now, borrowing costs are soaring and the pound plummeting. Why? Because the market has lost…

Jeff Bezos has told wedding guests not to bring a gift, with people asking ‘what do you give the man who has everything?’ A tax bill would be a good start

I am pleased to announce that the United States Navy is renaming the USNS Harvey Milk to the USNS Oscar V. Peterson. We are taking the politics out of ship naming.

Red paint on a building is not terrorism. Dismantling weapons of war is an act of peace. Palestine Action are not terrorists.
