Welcome to the blog of a third year sociology undergrad student in the UK. If you ever find yourself thinking “man, there’s nothing better than a politically charged uni student” then you’re certainly in the right place. I will be using this space to raise current issues surrounding politics in the UK; as a young white woman living in London I will attempt to engage you readers and understand wider inequalities surrounding political involvement. Political systems are sadly institutions which seem to silence certain voices, how can we change this? Well, using this blog I’ll try to pinpoint these issues, and consider how we can promote political equality!
Stick around (I promise I’ll try not to get preachy) and we can get to grips with politics. What even are politics really? How do societal factors influence politics and who gets involved? These are questions I myself often ask and will attempt to shed some light on (aim high right?). So please read my blogs, see what you think and leave me some comments, because there’s nothing like getting your teeth stuck into a good debate and discussion!
Whilst I include sources of information, I may also include my opinion. All opinions are valid, please remember to keep comments on the blog kind and open minded and I will aim to do the same! Thanks and enjoy!
