I am absolutely over the moon that my book “The Republican House Divided: Civil War Memory, Civil Rights, and the Transformation of the GOP” is officially published today!
After years of hard work, this is an incredibly special day 📚🐘🇺🇸

On the latest episode of the Authors of History Podcast I talk to historian and author Dr Tim Galsworthy about his journey to academia and his love of American Politics. We talk about what the America’s Civil War memory can tell us about the politics dividing the country today? We explore how the Republican Party reshaped its identity during the civil rights era.
If you follow U.S. politics, this conversation is essential listening. Tune in now on all Podcast platforms. Please share and review it really helps the podcast. @TimGalsworthy @UofSC

Deeply unserious politics that will have serious real-world consequences.
The cranks that tried to destroy Labour are hellbent on destroying another political party, it seems

The CTW-Croft-Irwin-Walker axis has great potential next season but Burgess and Moran need to give them a much better pack to play off
It hurts, and it's going to hurt for a while, but @WarringtonRLFC must move on - and part of that has to be looking deeper for an answer as to why they have faltered on the big stage again 👇@warringtonnews

The answers:
1) Our pack is too small
2) Sam Burgess is out of his depth coaching big games
3) Our attack is too conservative and predictable

Another utterly predictable grand final showing from Warrington. You don’t deserve to win trophies putting in performances like that in big games
Warrington better win next weekend. The thought of seeing Daryl Powell celebrating at full-time at Old Trafford 🤮
JUST LIKE THE LAST ONE, IT’S ALWAYS OUR YEAR! 🐺🐺🐺
Starmer pulled Labour back from the nadir of 2019, made us fit to serve the public again, and won a landslide victory in 2024.
Despite his short-lived premiership, he is more than a footnote in Labour history. He is someone I was proud to call my leader.
Thank you, Keir 🌹

Barcola is obviously an exciting signing, fine. But we need a CDM and a RB - and we need them yesterday - to have any chance of this season not being a write-off

29 August 1895. 6.30pm. The George Hotel, Huddersfield. The birth of the Northern Union. 'I say with Mark Twain's bold, bad boy that we glory in the sentence of outlawry pronounced on us, as freeing us from tyrannical bondage of the English [Rugby] Union'.

🚨Labour to win victory in the NEC elections🚨
Angie, Abdi, Peter and Jane have been re-elected.

Thank you 🌹

His Majesty received in Audience the Rt. Hon. Andrew Burnham MP and requested him to form a new Administration. The Rt. Hon Andrew Burnham MP accepted The King's offer and kissed hands upon his appointment as Prime Minister and First Lord of the Treasury.

It’s the honour of my life to be Leader of the Labour Party.
I will be a leader for every region and nation in this great country, and this Party will be unashamedly Labour in our priorities and in the decisions we take.
Together, we will set Britain on a new path.

I have made it my mission to give a voice to those who were ignored for too long.
I promised that my government would deliver the Hillsborough Law. I’m proud that today we’re making good on that promise.
Dr Tim Galsworthy retweeted
Today belongs to the Hillsborough families.
They never gave up.
Because of them, our country is one step closer to ensuring no family has to fight so long for truth and justice again.

When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.
A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”
That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.
I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.

If successful, Andy Burnham will be the first Labour and Co-operative Prime Minister in history.
