Carry on Campaigning? Or Brexit as Not-So-Jolly Gents' Japes, plus Wives and Sisters making dinner. I have just done a rough and ready analysis of the 'talking head' contributions to the BBC's 'Brexit: a Very British Civil War'. A short š§µabout this Blokey Affair:

Itās a grim not-so-merry-go-round for students trying to find their way in super-massive cohorts. @sylviademars.me point that many students using AI to get a 52 could do much better by not taking the shortcut lands hard with me. But 2.2 is a long way providing a smooth path to a legal career. Or 1/3
The promise of a referendum helps David Cameron win a majority. Nigel Farage starts to campaign for Brexit. Boris Johnson and Michael Gove decide whether to back Leave or Remain.
And better performing students are still doing something different. If we could only persuade the 52ers that cognitive effort is needed for 2.1+, whatever tools you use. Racking up debt for a low 2.2 grim. It also feeds a corrupted and unsustainable HE financing arrangements. 3/3
Potentially a very big deal. Changing the Westminster electoral system would fundamentally change our politics. Lesson from other countries is also that once FPP has been ditched it is unlikely to be brought back.
Lovely to see work on NI environmental governance recognised...even if colour choice looks like a poster for an action movie in the 2010s #orangeandteal
a good āgraduate jobā for the wider humanities/social sciences. I donāt delude myself about higher scoring students use of LLMs. I take some comfort from the fact that their use doesnāt (yet?) fabricate 2.1/1 marks for longer essays. My experience is of a good spread of marks this year. 2/3
