Every fascist movement in history has been backed by plutocrats. But until recently, they tended to keep quiet about it.

Only one in ten science teachers in schools in less deprived areas have science degrees. Only one apprenticeship for every three who apply. Neither ever makes the Times front page. Yet the small travails of the privileged private schools is front page news
If you want a good example of how power works in Britain, just consider how many broadsheet front pages are devoted to the relatively trifling problems of private schools by comparison to the day-to-day and long term problems faced by the state sector (where the vast majority of kids go).

“We inherited a bunch of formulas from Labour that shoved all the funding into deprived urban areas and that needed to be undone. I started the work of undoing that.” - Rishi Sunak, Tunbridge Wells, July 2022

On Friday I confronted Suella Braverman's use of hateful language. She refused to apologise. We must always challenge the language of hate. The Home Office demanded the video be taken town. They seem not to realise we are still a democracy.
The Home Office is seeking the removal of our video of Joan's exchange with Suella Braverman. But we are standing our ground. The full video is here: freedomfromtorture.org/holoc…

Did the 60s really swing? Majority of the scheme including resources. A few left out as they came through a colleague. As ever I have certainly built on the ideas of others including Simon Beales central SOW. By far the most credit needs to go to the Oak. drive.google.com/drive/folde…

Channel 4 News audience share has grown 23% on last year and 56% among 16-34s, according to audience research on first 29 weeks of 2022. Suggests in turbulent times (Ukraine, political and economic crisis) people still seek long form, analytical and challenging news.

This stuff is doing my head in now. How can it be right to say goodbye to colleagues but not dying relatives?
The PM says some events identified in Sue Gray's report were held for the purpose of "saying goodbye to valued colleagues". He adds that "some people will think it was wrong even to do that" but "I respectfully disagree." Live: trib.al/DkRY0kS 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube

MP Lee Anderson today said “You can’t just keep throwing money at a problem, eventually you’ve got to try and get to the root cause of a problem.” Sadly in a cost of living crisis where the poorest have income lower than their min outgoings the root cause is a lack of money.
