me, me, me. Also I'd like to know the thinking behind £32m for careers guidance but £320m for sport. Which would help the economy and people's life chance more?
So has anyone heard from @GavinWilliamson on the #CareerGuidanceGuarantee ? I think that there are a few people out there who want to know what you think.

COVID-19 has impacted the labour market. With 800,000 young people leaving education in Sept we need to take action. 800+ orgs & individuals have written to @GavinWilliamson calling for a #CareerGuidanceGuarantee to avoid mass unemployment. bit.ly/2Z4WF8F

I spoke to some lovely alumni yesterday @CoplestonSchool
After the government’s announcement regarding mass gatherings, we're postponing our Alumni and Friends of Copleston Celebration Evening. We've been overwhelmed by the response and plan to reschedule. Get in touch if you contributed photos or artefacts and you require them back.
