Between soaking up loan money from Student Finance England and bleeding it back out into local café establishments and a weekly baked goods order, I read Philosophy and Politics at Durham University – the spiritual birthplace of this publication.

I hope to remain part of the UK academic world until either its, or my own, eventual demise by the hand of Reform UK and its associates. During this strange time in between I aim to use this space to write and publicise some of my own work – taken from notes, or written bespoke for this publication.

While my main interest is the philosophy of political economy, I make frequent and essential excursions into ontological, epistemological and theological questions. And where my work at university has a necessary focus on precision, clarity and rigour, I enjoy expressing myself through embellished work, theory-fiction and, occasionally, bad poetry.

Outside of this, I enjoy listening to and making music, pencil drawing, and wiping down windowsills.
