@OxfordDiplomat Oh please, even @KenClarkeMP thinks the UK is close to a right wing dictatorship. Unless your post has a hint of sarcasm I didn't manage to detect.
@jowhiley My heart goes out to you. My son is also in a care home for adults with autism and learning disabilities. No vaccine offered yet. I also had the call last month to say he had tested positive which we had feared but he sailed through with no symptoms. Lots of love to you both.
What is the situation regards returning a student to Cardiff University from London. We will need to book in somewhere for a couple of nights. #KeepWalesSafe
Just out of a meeting in which insider knowledge says Johnson - sick, domestic difficulties - will resign after January. A Gove-Cummings succession a possibility, Sunak now unpopular with Tories because of taxes, Raab and Patel - Patel!! - popular with Tory grassroots. Horrors.
@DWP I have just been on the phone for the 3rd time today on hold for an hour to discuss the cut in ESA for my severely autistic son. You have cut his money by over £100 for no apparent reason. Any ideas how to talk to someone please? Holding on the last hour to be told 'closed'
@christof88@ucu International students have been arriving all this week, and are currently in quarantine, I find this move utterly repellent, given what students have endured the last 2 years with the ucu strikes.
@auralflaneur @CoojeeBear@ucu Not really sure that the marketisation of the industry is going to be solved overnight nor in the middle of a public health crisis, so maybe a new angle is needed. Back to my original point though - why wait till now to go to the press to gain public support/commentary?
@CoojeeBear@ucu Couldn't agree more. They've had all summer to fight this battle. Fully expecting Gov to u-turn on this one too now, and probably announce it on a Friday in September before a number of unis hold their moving in weekends
