Everything is set up for our @LJMUhistory #openday today. It's brilliant to be able to showcase some of the fantastic and creative work our students have produced in the last few years. @LJMU

My colleague Professor Crossland talks about his new book.

If in need of a distraction from current events, I had a wonderful conversation with @spybrary about Robert Bruce Lockhart's secret mission to Bolshevik Russia and his plan to bring down Lenin and Trotsky in 1918 ⬇️ #podcast #History #Russia @eandtbooks youtube.com/watch?v=d9tsMi…

Accidentally zapped to the 1942 film 'In Which We Serve' on BBC2 just now. It reminded me straightaway of @WWIIadvertising's legendary 'WW2 in British Films' module at @LJMUhistory I actually wonder whether it featured in the module?

Amen, etc!

What nonsense. Proof? Online marking is anonymous - students' names are redacted. What's more, in History at least, top grades can - and do - go to students from Left or Right; marks depends upon use of evidence, interpretation, clarity of argument, &c. &c.
