See new experimental research by CSI Director @kirk_davids and Associate Member @MRovira_ examining the potential consequences for the police themselves when fellow officers engage in brutality.
Do #Police officers find it hard to find jobs after leaving the force? Professor @kirk_davids @LeverhulmeTrust @SociologyOxford asked exactly this, at a time when the profession’s reputation has been tarnished by cases of lethal violence #poptwitter doi.org/10.1007/s11292-021-0…

In #GE2019, "it’s worth remembering that in spite of the ‘war’ going on over Brexit, the more traditional political cleavages are not quite dead in the water." say @DrLARichards @anthonyheath and Dan Snow.

A taster from new analysis for tomorrow. Labour 2017 voters unlikely to vote Conservative regardless of their Brexit identity. Those Labour leavers are unlikely to be Conservative converts.

NEW PAPER: Why do disadvantaged communities harm youth well-being? Partly they reduce positive interactions and trust i.e. social capital. But a bigger issue is that they generate more negative interactions, and negative interactions are much more harmful. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

"The greatest cause of poverty was not, as often believed, feckless shirking by the irresponsible lower classes, but low pay for full-time work, or inability to get regular work despite best efforts."
