Public International Law

I provide advisory services and speak at events in relation to all matters of public international law, including:

Statehood and border disputes

The use of force

The comercialisation of space and Antarctica

Diplomatic and state immunity

I want to play my part in making this happen, by building bridges and being a beacon for positive change.

Sanctions on the DPRK should be eased, and trade with the nation should greatly increase.

The international community should employ more peacekeeping efforts to help resolve violent unrest in Nigeria, Sudan and the DRC.

Much of what is held by the UK in the British Museum is stolen, and should be returned.
