@piersmorgan 🙏I was on GMB with you 7 years ago BTW about failing schools and kids not being allowed out to the loo if they felt sick 🤢 #NoExcuses #TurningAroundoneofBritain’sToughestSchools 💪

[Alison Colwell @AlisonColwell]

@piersmorgan Brilliant post 🤣Just read your book “Wake Up” in one day. Equally brilliant. Nodded and laughed and got riled up throughout. Would you please consider following me (it’s an elite group🤣) so I can tell you about my book #NoExcuses which I’d be honoured if you’d read and review

[Alison Colwell @AlisonColwell]

@mrjohnofarrell @claphambooks Yes please! How do I do this? And please can anyone please ask John to read my book? It’d be an absolute honour #NoExcuses

[Alison Colwell @AlisonColwell]

@IainDale @NickFerrariLBC I’ve only just got up to speed with all of it! What a week for you. Hoping so much you return to LBC. You are just amazing - wise, funny, reasonable, sharp, with legions of fans. You’d have been a brilliant MP too. Hope you’re doing ok 🙏😘

[Alison Colwell @AlisonColwell]

@mrjohnofarrell @jasonomahony I can’t wait to read it. Currently half way through TCOGW and it’s brilliant. I still remember where I read TCOGB when it came out. John, you’re amazing 👍

[Alison Colwell @AlisonColwell]

@mrjohnofarrell Unbelievable

[Alison Colwell @AlisonColwell]

@RealGeoffBarton @tes @jon_severs Absolutely spot on and so well deserved. I salute you Geoff. Your sign off to ASCL members has just made me weep in public. Thank you for all your brilliance.
