  • In Defence of Offence: Everyday Sexism Reversed

    April 13, 2014 • Culture, Featured

    There is a term with which I like to refer to our current treatment of women, and that is ‘patriarchal bullshit’. In my view, patriarchal bullshit is still smothering the 21st century to death, though it’s trying really, really hard to run far away. Continue Reading

  • The Energy Debate: Where Next for Britain?

    March 3, 2014 • Economics, Featured, Politics

    Britain is a nation in need of transition. The current energy sources that it relies on are both expensive and unsustainable. 35% of Britain’s energy mix is made up of natural gas, a resource that is in decline. Britain’s domestic supply of gas has historically been in the North Sea, and we first started properly utilising the resource in the 1980s, using it ever since; Continue Reading

  • Dale’s Buyers Club: A Review of Dallas Buyers Club

    March 3, 2014 • Culture, Featured

    Dallas Buyers Club bashes its way on screen as Ron Woodroof, Matthew McConaughey’s moustachioed Marlboro munching Merican machismo, lecherously leers into existence sweating between two corpulent Dallas blondes with that all-American institution, the rodeo, as a glaringly reflective backdrop to his own thrill ride.

  • Modern Shakespeare: A Handsome Man’s World

    February 19, 2014 • Culture, Featured

    Anyone who knows me will know that I love Shakespeare. Every work of his I’ve read or seen performed, I’ve been moved, inspired, and emotionally jolted by. I may even go as far as to say he’s my favourite playwright – and, as an English and Drama student, that’s really saying something. What I’m really fussed by, however, is the seeming necessity to ‘cast the hottie’ in productions Continue Reading

  • Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics: the 50p Rate of Tax

    February 19, 2014 • Economics, Featured, Politics

    In the news recently was Labour’s latest promise to raise the rate of tax on top earnings from 45p in the pound to 50p. Having observed the backlash with which this has been met by some commentators and by the generally opinionated, I have decided to wade into the debate with this attempt to dispel some of the most popular myths put out by the reactionaries and the Tory apologists.

  • All About Atmosphere

    February 5, 2014 • Culture, Featured

    I know I’m not the only person that can proudly admit that my first concert was not some cool indie group but the one and only ‘S Club 7’. I was so far away I could barely tell each band member apart, but nevertheless I remember the atmosphere being completely electric. A crowd full of fellow 7 year olds with their sparkly hats and flashing lights, screaming reach for the stars like their lives depended on it. Continue Reading

    Spotlight on Women’s Football in England

    Football is growing. In 1888 it was a game played between twelve teams in England, now it’s a game enjoyed by 265 million players worldwide. Gone are the days of elitism; now are the days of inclusivity, and women are no exception...
