This is someone being slowly but surely being absorbed into the right-wing grifter space. Seen it a hundred times.
I have long been uneasy about a growing compulsion for academics to bring political agendas into teaching and research. (I believe political views are private and that the lecturer has no right to use their platform for propaganda.) Turns out I wasn't just imagining this.

@portsmouthnews @DonnaJonesPCC @HantsPCC The PCC should resign after backing thugs and rioters over law and order. Hope that feedback is helpful.
@SoupTomatoSoup @callummay @PA He's got plenty of time to reflect on that while his cellmate watches him take a shit.
@DonnaJonesPCC have you resigned yet? How can rank and file coppers trust you when you have the back of thugs and nazis?
@DonnaJonesPCC why were you writing statements in support of criminals earlier?

The many versions of Bernie Spofforth 🧵 She claims to not have "invented" the name. That may be true. But she was the first to publish it on social media, and it took like wildfire, was harvested by a dingy fake media website, in turn repurposed by the local and intl far-right.
@derowzey Ah - get you 😉 but yes I agree about if Putin had an accident.
@derowzey hello - I am not sure why you are messaging me stuff about how you hate Putin?? I hate him too but I don't know you.
@HUMBLEBILL We'll let the police decide I think...
@HUMBLEBILL Now I think about it - I wonder if your posts are in line with "A sexual harm prevention order was imposed that will restrict his use of the internet indefinitely"?
@HUMBLEBILL That you are a sex offender? Already joined.

@ArmandDAngour @petefoxes A special arrangement with the home office for Oxford Colleges? 🤣
Always slightly suspicious of attempts to save programmes where no data is provided on size, scale or impact.
@DkOkenia @kerriandrewsuk @ucu Even then - that money is already spent paying for school teachers.
