Michael Stuchbery (born 7 April 1980), known more commonly as Mike Stuchbery, is an Australian writer and podcaster who focuses on history. He lives in Luton, United Kingdom.

Use of Twitter[edit]

In 2017, he clashed with conservative media pundit Paul Joseph Watson when Watson took issue with a BBC educational film which portrayed a multiethnic family as "typical" of families in Roman Britain.[1] Stuchbery's Twitter responses were shared thousands of times, possibly leading to the historian Mary Beard joining in the altercation between the two. J. K. Rowling shared some of these responses, and several online publications reported on the altercation.[2][3][4][5] Stuchbery has continued to clash with online personalities on social media, such as journalist Ian Miles Cheong.[6][7][8]

Professional career[edit]

He moved to the United Kingdom, where he found work as a supply teacher at Lynn Grove High School, in Gorleston. He left the school in November 2014 after his calls to "ban banter", in an attempt to ban various forms of teasing and mischief. Stuchbery claims this was necessary to prevent bullying.[9] He left the school by mutual consent, stating that the decision to leave was "so as not to further interrupt the learning of students".[9]

In January 2016, Stuchbery ended his career in education, claiming that work as a teacher had caused a nervous breakdown, as well as depression and anxiety.[10]

He has written an article for the online publication The New European.[11]
