local, national and international print and broadcast
outlets, including:
•

For examples, you can see op-eds I wrote for The
Australian or the Telegraph; TV appearances on the BBC and Al Jazeera, and a radio appearance on Monocle 24. Most
of my appearances are archived on my blog here.
The kind of areas I am asked to speak or write about have included:

The quickest way for journalists to contact me is probably by DM’ing me on Twitter and emailing
l.c.jones[at]qmul.ac.uk. You can also call the Queen Mary press office on +44 20 7882 3004, which has my mobile
telephone number.
