Getting to know the LAPG Team – Ariana Jahromi

Policy and Parliamentary Affairs Researcher

What do you do?

I read, then search, then re-search, then research, then finally write something.

What is the best bit of the job?
Not to sound sappy, but the energy of this specific team and the constant motion genuinely inspires me. The office banter is A grade too.

Quick fire questions…

Homeworking or office?
Office – Covid university ruined any joy of working in my pyjamas.
Coffee or kombucha?
Kefir. Only real ones know kefir.
Posh chocolate or Cadbury’s Dairy Milk?
I am but a simple girl, I love my Cadbury’s or Kinder. Or if you’re feeling really posh, Guylian.
Last music or comedy gig attended?
Stand-up Comedy Club – mostly a hit or miss, I’ve been on a losing streak with them.
Favourite lawyer (can be fictional or real)?
Laszlo Cravensworth as a barrister, What we do in the Shadows.
Real would have to be Joanna Hardy-Susskind; one of the first barristers that I encountered the work of and heard talk about legal aid. Fierce.
TV programme series you have most recommended to friends?
Succession – Jesse Armstrong is a modern Shakespeare and you cannot tell me otherwise.
Favourite person/organisation you follow on Twitter or any other social media platform?
Not to fangirl, but still Joanna Hardy-Susskind.
