These two need an open public debate. The fate of ALL our children is tightly tied to one woman's personal ideology - be it Marxism or Phillipsonism. @bphillipsonMP must be brought to account and @Miss_Snuffy is the one to do it. @anaboultertv #EducationNotTaxation

More sessions coming up at Parent Carers Cornwall - incredibly they are able to provide these to people for free, this is a rare thing, something we have got used to down here, but something which will be ending soon, so take advantage of it whilst it lasts.

95% of autistic children are bullied in school.
It's not 'snobbery' to choose one you feel is safer than another. It's survival.

Unpaid carers have their allowance taken from them when in hospital caring but they are still caring
Why not ask hospitals to sign a form saying “relative remained in situ caring over 35 hrs a wk” “we didn’t have the skill to provide the care the person needed

🧵The @ChildrensComm (@Rachel_deSouza) spoke out against @UKLabour's Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill but said *nothing* about their divisive #SchoolFeeVAT that is forcing kids from their schools and facing threats. Does she truly stand for "ALL" children?
@EducationNotTax have written to her office multiple times, as have individual *children*. No response.
Help us get heard, and help us get a response. Please 'quote' this post (select 'repost' and then 'quote') and tag @ChildrensComm and @Rachel_deSouza. Each of us has a voice, and together we have strength.
The posts that follow are examples of the toxic environment this policy has created for children. Children who DO matter, even if the Children's Commissioner thinks otherwise.

Teachers have the power to support and change the lives of autistic students.
More often than not, however, they abuse autistic students and inflict lifelong trauma.
They turn the classroom from a point of liberation to a prison.

"I’ve spoken to several parents this week whose children...have literally nowhere to go. I spoke to...parents...who have approached all of the schools in their...area and been turned down. The schools are full."
A scandal entirely of @UKLabour's making.

So a tax that no school has ever paid is now being described as a tax break, which nobody ever has before. As opposed to a new tax on education, which is what it is. It’s an impressively Orwellian use of nomenclature. And it will pay for a third of an extra teacher in every state school. Well done. Revolutionary.

@Maxwell_Marlow outlined how the imposition of VAT on private schools will suppress growth, showing how parents who take their children out of private school may decide to work fewer hours, retire early, or leave the labour force altogether. 📉
