 | Born and raised in Somerset, I attended comprehensive school and Sixth-Form College before getting a place at St. John’s College, Oxford to read PPE. I have been President of the Oxford University European Affairs Society, and the St John’s philosophy society. I worked as a mentor for disadvantaged students in a school in Banbury last year and I am currently the Comment Editor of the Cherwell newspaper in Oxford. I will be sitting my Finals exams in June, including modules in Ethics, sociological theory and social policy. |
"Just when Kant's formulation that 'the public exercise of reason should be free' had begun to seem so remote and exhausted, the Battle should reinforce one's faith in the enduring worth of dissent and of the free traffic in ideas"
