Hello! This is the userpage for LeelumVox, better known as Liam McLoughlin. I hold a doctorate from the University of Salford in how social media has changed representation in the United Kingdom. Currently, I am a post-doc at Birkbeck, University of London. I'll mostly be editing pages that deal with my research area: so Social Media, Content Moderation, Politics of the United Kingdom, and political communication.
