Hi there! I’m Zeena,

I'm a Politics PhD Researcher in the Centre for British Politics at the University of Hull, looking into British Indian voting behaviour. Within politics, my interest rests heavily on British Indians in England, with my BA dissertation looking at British Hindu voting behaviour in the Leicester East constituency and my Masters dissertation looking into whether British Indian is a redundant term - focusing on Indians in England. 

I warmly invite you to take a look on my website and feel free to contact me if you have any questions, via the Contact Me form at the bottom of my page or on X - @ZMistryResearch.

Personal Profile and About my Research

Hard work, determination and resilience are key skills I've developed over the years, and this is what has helped me to get to where I am - from completing my Bachelors and Masters degrees during the Coronavirus pandemic to pursuing opportunities to grow as an individual.

I set up my blog in the summer of 2020, to enable me to share my ideas and interests with you, the reader, and I hope you will enjoy it. My interests compliment the fact that politics is a broad subject, ranging from the workings of British politics, to Voting Behaviour and the ethics of Artificial Intelligence.

 

My pieces have been published mostly on Wolves of Westminster and the notable non-profit publication The Mallard - both online and in print.

About My Research

 

In September 2022 I begun my PhD journey in the Centre for British Politics at the University of Hull. My research is gaining an in depth understanding of British Indian voting behaviour, with the focus being Indians who live in England.

My research interest comes from noticing an over generalisation is discussions on voting behaviour that "all ethnic minorities vote for the Labour Party." Whilst this might have been true in the late 20th Century and early 21st Century, political attitudes have and continue to change. To conduct my research I am using interviews with Labour and Conservative MPs in England, Member of the House of Lords, and British Indian Labour and Conservative Councillors.

In the academic year 2024/25 I am thrilled to be a recipient of the Political Studies Association Diverse Voices, for more see here.
