Welcome. This is a space for (somewhat average) commentary and analysis, focused on the point in which politics and culture converge.

Whether it’s delving into inter-party politics, a close examination of cultural trends or reviewing adventures that I’ve recently embarked on, this blog seeks to showcase my thoughts in writing.

I’m Lydia, an aspiring journalist with an MA in National Security Studies and BA in History and International Relations. I possess an interest in how politics impacts culture, and how culture shapes politics in turn.

Thanks for reading – and feel free to challenge me in the comments.
