🏺New article in Cambridge Archaeological Journal: "An Anarchist Archaeology of Equality" www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Poorest fifth in England pay 4.8% of income in council tax; richest fifth 1.5%. 27% real term cut in council funding since 2010, govt hand tax cuts to corporations/rich. Poor hit with regressive taxes VAT Fuel duty Wages taxed at higher rates than dividends, capital gains. Need tax justice.

Just wow!

The UK well on it's way to being a police state 🤦

Lock up dangerous drivers.

It's time for #UBI

I see Tom Rowsell (AKA Survive the Jive) is rebranding himself as the cosy face of English #paganism. He's got a @hopenothate.org.uk file for a reason - much as he comes across as educated, he isn't & underpinning his output is far right ideology. #Archaeology #Pagan unherd.com/2024/04/brit...

The Working Class Need To Reclaim Their Self Respect, FAST. youtu.be/Ur1YaDgoW5A

Men: What can we do to help? Sorry, too busy being at extreme risk of being killed by a man I trust or completing a checklist to stop myself being raped to write you a fucking to do list. They actually expect us to take on the work of telling them how to stop raping and killing us? Unbelievable.

Stop scum landlords now! ✊

Amazon UK currently have the best deal I have ever seen on our book The Old Stones, £16.80 - almost half price. For some bizarre reason they have put us in Haunted & Unexplained Travel but #2 most gifted is amazing! Just an idea 😉#TheOldStones www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/... 🏺#AncientBlueSky

Hi folks. I wanted to share my thoughts on the recently published Snettisham Hoards volumes (link to an online copy of the books is in the blog). Thank you for reading 😊 #Archaeology #Torcs #Snettisham #BritishMuseum #Gold #IronAge #Prehistory bigbookoftorcs.com/2024/12/11/t...

The Hove Amber Cup for #FindsFriday A beautiful and rare Bronze Age amber cup which glows when it catches the light. Carved from a single piece of Baltic amber about 3,500 years ago. Found in 1856 inside Hove Barrow, a large Bronze Age burial mound in Sussex. 📷 by me #Archaeology

With reports this week having found that Britain is THREE TIMES more likely to arrest climate activists than other countries everyone should watch this shocking film👇 The court’s decision in @libertyhq.bsky.social’s case is due in the New Year

It's ritual! 🤣 #archaology

Almost half of all mentions of Islam or Muslims on UK news channels since October 2022 came from a single a source, a new report has found, confirming what many have suspected: GB News is an engine of Islamophobia. @simonchilds.bsky.social reports: novara.media/4fZT5

5th person to be cured of HIV “Today, researchers announced the Dusseldorf patient still has no detectable virus in his body, even after stopping his HIV medication four years ago.”

🏺 Very much appreciate Beatriz Marín-Aguilera’s response to this piece which really resonates with a lot of my own concerns with some recent work coming out of archaeology that I am otherwise very much into! www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

New publication!! I'm really excited that Antiquity has just published my article "Attending to unproof: an archaeology of possibilities" Applying feminist and anarchist theory, I argue that we must allow the past to be complicated & contradictory in order to find in it the seeds of better futures

Get these parasites out!
