Congrats! Well-timed and from a brief skim seems to chime with what we find regarding NHS health access versus other forms of benefits. I like the segmented language too. Would love to meet up and compare notes if any of you are going to @epssnet.bsky.social this week. bsky.app/profile/will...

Today! Moderated by @alexandreafonso.bsky.social
Very much looking forward to it!

Absolutely fascinating polling by @christabelcoops.bsky.social @thinklabour.bsky.social. Says a lot about the (mis)perceptions of voters - and the cues they use to evaluate the social background of politicians.

Excited for #epss2026, where I'll share work about immigrants' occupational essentialness and public views on welfare: Friday, 10.50, Broadway (Hilton). With stellar coauthors @jacquibroadhead.bsky.social @mfreino.bsky.social @deniskierans.bsky.social @isabel-ruiz.bsky.social @msumption.bsky.social
When people think about migrants and welfare, they often ask a simple question: Should migrants have access to social benefits?
Our new paper with @alexandreafonso.bsky.social and Samir Negash suggests the answer is much more nuanced.
